Presently the district is supplementing the special education cost from regular education. We will be unable to continue this practice in the year 2000. In a small school most of the staff works well together. All understand what is required. We use IDEA to its fullest extent, which helps.
Several students moving into the district cannibalize the district budget.
Conflict over the amount of aid time in special education compared to regular education. Conflict on special education kids in regular education courses. How to distribute instructional budgets between buildings which maintenance projects to complete with limited funds. Special verses regular education. Severely disabled students entering the district requires funds normally used for regular education significantly.
