Vermont special education system flunks
July 15, 2010 in Special Needs News by Admin Dawn
Vermont’s special education system has been found to be non-compliant with federal education law, according to an annual performance report for the 2008-09 school year.
The U.S. Department of Education, as part of the Individuals with Disabilities Act, looks at the special education departments of every state to see if the states are meeting the requirements of the law.
Vermont was one of 11 states that failed to meet the requirements for two years or more, and must now receive technical assistance from the federal education department.
Vermont was also required to notify the public about its determination after failing to meet the federal requirements for two years in a row for students between the ages of 3 and 21.
