Book excerpt: Considerable challenges face the school finance community relating to the implementation of such concepts as equity, adequacy, accountability, and efficiency within a policy environment. Although each of these concepts focuses on a specific aspect of public education, in practice they are often linked. Although more work is needed to clarify these standards, it is already evident, as is pointed out in this volume, that the kinds of dual service systems that have been created for general and special education students can be better integrated in order to improve outcomes related to all four of these important concepts. Special education has become a vital component of the nation's overall education system. It is essential that future work to address fiscal policy challenges include the special needs of children with disabilities along with those of all children. The purpose of this book is to contribute to a fuller incorporation of special education fiscal policy concerns into the mainstream of the education finance literature and fiscal policy. This is the 19th yearbook of the American Finance Association.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In response to a congressional request, GAO reported on financing special education services for handicapped children, specifically the concern that the Education for All Handicapped Children Act of 1975 resulted in state and local education agencies assuming responsibility for financing a wide variety of services to such children. GAO focused on two states and their use of interagency agreements to utilize state agencies' resources to serve handicapped children. GAO found that: (1) state agencies with various responsibilities for serving handicapped children can work together and share the cost of needed services; (2) in Connecticut, Medicaid reimbursements of approximately $5 million per year will be available to local school districts for school-based health services to handicapped children; (3) Maryland's interagency agreement resulted in health and social service agencies contributing over $11 million to a fiscal year 1986 state funding pool to cover the costs of placing handicapped children in residential facilities; and (4) proposed legislation would clarify financial responsibility for services required and encourage the use of interagency agreements through a revision to the act.

Download or read book Federal Funding for Students with Disabilities written by Clare McCann and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nearly 6.5 million students in the United States ages 3 through 21 are currently classified as requiring special education. Those students have physical, developmental, and emotional disabilities that make educational endeavors more challenging for teachers, administrators, and the students themselves. Yet historically, the needs of special education students were met sporadically if at all. Parents were frequently left to fend for themselves and their children within the education system. In the 1960s, the federal government made a historic entrě into the field as part of the Great Society initiatives, launching a legislative effort that would ultimately become the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). Special education students' rights were won through political and courtroom battles that resulted in the establishment of laws and principles protecting all students with disabilities. Today, the law governs states' obligations to students with special needs and defines the federal role in providing services to those children. All students with disabilities are guaranteed the right to a "free appropriate public education" in the "least restrictive environment" possible. Ninety-five percent of all children ages 6 through 21 served under Part B of IDEA spend at least some portion of the school day in regular classrooms, and nearly 60 percent of those students are in mainstream classes for at least 80 percent of the day. By many measures, the law has been a success. There is, however, another looming component to federal special education law that cannot be ignored: finance. This report presents a detailed analysis of federal special education finance data for more than 9,000 school districts across the United States. It suggests that the stated priorities of the federal grants to states--population- and poverty-based funding--are often abandoned in light of certain other provisions of the formula. Meanwhile, federal formulas grow further from states' realities every year. Lawmakers continue to spend $11.5 billion annually on special education in accordance with the outdated formula (and states and school districts spend much more). With the passage of time, a relatively minor problem has become a large one. As Congress begins to consider reauthorization of the law, it is in an entirely different context. A persistent recession, public concern about the national debt, and a growing focus on accountability for federal funds will demand that lawmakers prioritize efficiency of spending above all else. To fulfill their historic promise to student with disabilities and their families, lawmakers must modernize the critical funding mechanisms that help educate students whose needs have never been greater.
