Why is it okay to move kids with disabilities without any consultation yet there is a task force to move the Clinton School? Are the parents and the students with disabilities considered to be so unimportant that they needn't even be given the courtesy of a place at the planning table? that they can be ignored? These children were at that school through good times and bad times, through major school construction and through multiple general education principals, yet they are moved with no plan for the future? Where is the vaunted School Planning Team? Wasn't there supposed to be consultation with the whole community served in that public school building? Where is the P138 relocation committee? Has one been formed yet? Has one been considered? Or is that too much to ask.... hey they're just "special ed" kids.
