Mrs. Lucy Cappello, district Supervisor of Special Services, reviewed federal and state rules and regulations for special education. Parents, teachers, and members of the public attended. The Rutherford school district, along with others throughout the state, is conducting a self-assessment of its special education programs. As part of this self-assessment, an open meeting was held earlier in the month to encourage parents to share their thoughts and concerns.
Parents education is one area that parents identified as needing more attention.
This January 24th meeting was a direct response to this need.
