Where the candidates stand on IDEIA or NCLB is largely unknown. Here is a guide that offers some minimal guidance on the respective positions of McCain and Obama. Please note that the description of NCLB in this article leaves a lot to be desired, and ignores the ramifications of NCLB for students with special needs that is nicely described by my friend Sandy Alperstein. We need to insist on more detail regarding respective positions on IDEIA and NCLB as the campaigns gather steam in the coming months.
There is so much that could change within education and special education depending on who wins this election. It will have huge effects on schools.
