Did a nose count, and more than half of my #elementary #students have #ieps. No worries, we’re #PublicSchool #teachers, we can fucking do anything. A new student arrived today with high IEP minutes- he’d tried a #charterschool and had such rough start they moved to our school after 3 days. Charters simply don’t work for the huge majority of non-affluent, non-cis, neurodiverse, and/or disabled students, and public funding should never suggest otherwise. /soapbox

There are also #secular implications of becoming a #CharterSchool. Charter #schools have more flexibility than traditional #PublicSchools, but there are rules about #teacher #qualifications, #curriculum #standards, #discipline processes, #employment terms, facility conditions & serving #students with #disabilities. Students are typically required to take standardized tests.
