ESE Task Force
Highlights
It’s been almost a year since the school board members approved changes in the design of the ESE program across the school district of Osceola county. In the name of inclusion, these changes were imposed on students in the ESE program, those in the general education classrooms, their families, and the educators who work with them day in and day out. The district promised full support and training for educators. They promised high quality teaching and learning experiences for all students. The school board doubled-down on these promises. But one year later, none of those promises have been kept. SDOC has set us up for failure. Teachers, paraprofessionals, students, and families have been placed in an impossible situation. It’s time to act NOW. Let school board members hear it directly from you.
