Meeting the Needs of
Students with Special Needs
The West New York
School District has received word from the New Jersey State
Department of Education, Office of Special Education Programs’ that
the district Meets Requirements regarding the implementation of
federal and state education requirements for the Federal Fiscal Year
(FFY) 2007.
According to the
NJOSEP, the “West New York School District demonstrated correction
of all noncompliance during its last on-site special education
monitoring/verification visit and through other general supervisory
activities.”
Among the factors
for the NJOSEP’s determination for FFY 2007, which ran from July 1,
2007 to June 30, 2008, were the district’s General, Supervision:
including monitoring, targeted reviews, complaint investigations,
verification, other oversight activities and data submissions;
Placement in the Least Restrictive Environment; and
Disproportionality.
“We continue to
work hard to meet the needs of our students with special needs and
meet the indicators, which reflect the progress of all out
students,” said Stacy Olivero, director of Special Services.
Listed below are
some of the indicators used by the NJOSEP:
-
Whether the
NJOSEP needed to provide ongoing oversight as part of its
general supervision, to facilitate progress of the local
district in correcting noncompliance
-
Whether the
local district was identified for “Significant
Disproportionality” of specific racial/ethnic groups with regard
to eligibility, placement, and/or disciplinary determinations,
as indicated in its IDEA ’09 grant notice
-
Whether the
local district was identified for the 2007-2008 self-assessment
process based on the percentage of students with disabilities
educated in separate public and/or private special education
settings
-
Whether the
local district’s data submissions were received by the NJOSEP in
a timely manner
