Reimagining Special Education
Dear New Yorkers:
I am so grateful to our teachers and staff who work hard each day to serve our students with disabilities. Across our school communities, I see so much greatwork happening; and I see the need to make dramatic improvements to completely reimagine special education. Under the current structure, far too manyfamilies face difficulties obtaining basic services or have to look elsewhere for a school that works best for their child. While we have made improvements inspecial education over the years, we need to do better for the families of our 200,000 students with disabilities.
