What’s so difficult about graduation rates, disproportionality, accommodations/modifications, assessment and out-of-level testing? Plenty! If “students with disabilities” is a difficult subgroup for you to administrate, these are typically the reasons why. This symposium provides an executive perspective of these tough issues -- and solutions for them -- using data, best practices and legal requirements to make the points. The 30th National Institute was held April 26 - 29, 2009 in Las Vegas. Pamphlet is snapshots of presentation slides.
