Apparently HIS child doesn't or will never attend this school. The AP also has a child with special needs. Does it matter? Apparently not- she will ruin a formerly excellent program and collect her paychecks.

My school has instituted a program for students with special needs where they receive a limited number of academic classes and work study classes for the duration. They are only allowed to stay in the school building for four years even though they have the legal right to stay in a public school until they are 21. My AP has deemed 4 years in school to be sufficient. Years ago we had classes such as socialization and transition. Our students learned how to cook, sort and wash laundry and learned basic life skills. These programs no longer exist because of funding. I wonder why a student with special needs would require classes in global history learning about the explorers rather than learn life skills. I have to assume that our administration knows best, or do they?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29536003.post-11698350315747766132014-07-21T13:28:39.977-04:002014-07-21T13:28:39.977-04:00The DOE and NYC public schools have absolutely not...The DOE and NYC public schools have absolutely nothing to do with education. It's about keeping a facade of education while spending as much money as possible to keep the illusion going. If education were a privilege and not a right you would see no public schools and a smarter, educated population. If DeBlasio wants to attack the 1% he should also look at the DOE and it's maintaining an ignorant, entitled underclass. It's all about the status quo.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
