Budget gaffe could mean big cut to special needs students
A state budget glitch could cost special needs students in San Diego County $17 million.
To make matters worse, the California Department of Education is saying that some of the money already spent by districts may have to be returned unless emergency fix-it legislation is signed into law.
To head off that possibility, the state Senate in the coming days is expected to approve such a measure carried by Assemblyman Marty Block, D-San Diego.
