Rescind the rule requiring race to be considered in special education
What the document says“The next Administration should immediately commence rulemaking to rescind the Equity in IDEA regulation.”
The regulation requires states to consider race and ethnicity in the identification, placement and discipline of students with disabilities. The chapter says that as a result students are being denied access to special education because of their race or ethnicity, that this was not the intent of the rule but an inevitable byproduct of its assumptions, and that no replacement regulation is required.
What the document actually says“The next Administration should immediately commence rulemaking to rescind the Equity in IDEA regulation.”
Start the process to cancel this rule at once.
One rule makes states look at race in special education. The book says that leads schools to turn children away. It wants the rule cancelled.
