There is a special education teacher, regular education teacher, and a regular education para-professional in the classroom. The accommodations that are in place for the students are only being followed by the regular education teacher and the regular education para professional. The teacher has documented this and discussed the issue with administration. The administrators say they are going to follow up with the special education teacher but has not done so. The special education students are not receiving the assistance that they are required to present by law. What should the regular education do to ensure that all students in the classroom receive what they need in order to be successful? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) Follow their IEP accommodations as the regular education teacher. Remind your administration of the issue at hand. If nothing is done, move up the chain of command until the issue is addressed. If your administration does not take this seriously, a lawsuit is really close behind. Keep documenting your moves and be ready for some heat if you have to move up the chain of command. Also remember you do not have to take a lot of heat for following the law. If this occurs another lawsuit is around the corner.
