Abstract
- This article reports that special education can eat districts alive. This was confirmed by Clark Easter, founder and chairman of 4GL School Solutions Inc. It devours 20 percent to 25 percent of the average district's budget with only 11 percent to 12 percent of students. Many special education teachers spend nearly half of the day buried under piles of paper. Inequitable resource allocation, staff burnout and turnover and near zealous focus on compliance rather than instruction further complicate the scene. A handful of districts have deployed technology-based special education management systems to save time and money and better serve special education students. INSET: The Software Checklist.
