In my district aides are full time but not qualified. Most have little or no training at all with special needs. I have seen many aides yelling, hitting, pushing and being demeaning to the students that are in their care. This has happened in both public schools and out of district schools. I make it a point to be a class mom, or help out in the library to see what is going on and unfortunately I once saw this happen as I was touring a school.

I received this email from another parent and would like your feedback. - Evelyn

Hi All,

I was wondering if I could get some feedback...

My district is firing 71 full time instructional aides, to reduce the school budget, and replacing them with 140 part time aides, so they do not have to pay for health benefits. A student who currently has one full time aide will have two part time aides next year. I'm finding a number of Districts in NJ are planning the same.

Is your school districts doing the same? (y/n) State? District?
Does your school receive Title 1 funds? (y/n) .
Does your school meet NCLB requirements? (y/n) . All schools in districts do / do not meet AYP.
How is your district planning on allocating the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009: IDEA Recovery Funds for Services to Children and Youths with Disabilities (ARRA)?
Has anyone been successful in blocking this cut? (y/n) If so how?
Is the teacher's union protesting? (y/n)

Any feed back is appreciated!

Oh yes....finally!  I mean our insurance refuses to pay for our son's extra

Subject: HILLSBOROUGH SCHOOL BUDGET - Summary of Dr. Forsthoffer's BUDGET discussion at our March WRSHA meeting

tinacaretoshare

Offline

WRS Families:

For those of you that were unable to attend last Thursday's WRSHA meeting during which Superintendent of Schools, Dr. Ed Forsthoffer spoke, we are sending you this summary in an effort to help you understand the Budget and it's current status.

We found Dr. Forsthoffer's talk and the question/answer period that followed very informative and educational. It helped many of us that were present understand what the tentative budget means to us, as individuals, and we wanted to share the information with you.

The easiest way we found to explain was in simple bullet points.

1. Definition of CAP - the highest amount allowed by the state that your taxes can be increased to meet the budget without requesting a waiver.

2. 2009/2010 CAP = 1.6 cents per every hundred dollars for your property/house assessment

3. Current "Tentative" Budget is set "below CAP" at 1 cent (this was voted on at 3/16 BOE meeting)

4. This means 1 penny per every hundred dollars for your property/house assessment....so a home valued at $325,000 (which is the median priced house in Hillsborough) would mean an increase in your yearly taxes of $32.50

5. The tentative budget requires cuts, most notably to 7 Special Education Aides, 3 Elementary School teachers due to changes in the numbers but this will have no effect on class sizes and a part-time K-6 REACH Resource Teacher who assists at the elementary level with testing (for list of all cuts, visit http://www.hillsborough.k12.nj.us/hillsborough/site/default.asp

6. The Board can still decide to "go to CAP" and increase to 1.6 cents, which would result in less cuts, they could leave the budget at 1 cent or they could decide to make additional cuts.

7. "Going to CAP" would mean that a home valued at $325,000 would have a yearly tax increase of $52.00

There is a final BOE meeting on March 30, at which time you can attend and voice your opinion, either for the tentative budget to be kept at "below CAP" or to encourage the BOE to increase the budget and "go to CAP" in an effort to make as few cuts as possible (this would result in the $52.00/year increase...which is an additional $19.50 than the "below cap" budget that is now tentative - for a $325,000 home ).

The vote by the Board of Education on 3/16 for a budget that "went to CAP" was 4 to 4....thus the budget was brought to "below CAP" for a final vote that was approved - the now "tentative budget". One board member was not present for the 3/16 vote.

Kathy was at that meeting (Wendy watched most of it on TV)....and we both agree, the public's opinion did seem to have an affect on the voting BOE members, as the original budget that was presented at the beginning of the meeting was changed to reflect some of the people's requests.

If you would like to see the budget "go to CAP" (which would mean less cuts and only another $19.50 in taxes) or if you are okay with the budget "as is" you can voice your opinion, by either attending the meeting (on Monday, March 30 at Auten Road Intermediate School's cafeteria at 7:30) and commenting in person or you can comment via email by sending to boe@... (this address reaches every board member).

One thought that was expressed by many that attended our meeting was that they felt that if the BOE raised the budget "to CAP" and the budget does not pass at the election on 4/21, at least the Town Council has a higher proposed budget to make changes to.

However you feel the budget should be - please vote on Tuesday, April 21. The quality of your child's education depends on it and your vote really does count (last year's budget passed by only 24 votes)!

If you would like further information, Dr. Forsthoffer has invited anyone that would like to discuss to email him directly. You can also host a home visit - all you need to do is gather some neighbors and he, or one of the Assistant Superintendents will be happy to come to discuss.

We hope that you found this to be helpful in your understanding of the budget and how it's final version may affect you and your children. Also how you, as an individual have the power to help create that final version before it goes to vote.

Thank you.

HI everyone,

my son's neuro-developmental specialist said to avoid High Fructose Corn syrup. I did not have time to ask why, and I have read some things seem pretty bad about this stuff. Since I got my little man to stop drinking from a bottle, and started making him use other utensils, he drinks a lot of water, and he likes juice, (non HFCS brands, in moderation) and Danimals yogurts. The danimals is good because it has calcium and replaces his milk in his diet right?? Oh no, Danimals has HFCS in it! Phooey, back to the drawing board!! LOL

I guess I should just change over to an organic brand of drinkable yogurt? I have noticed that they dont have HFCS on their list of ingredients.

Does anyone know what problems can come from HFCS? I really need to keep my son from getting obese as he grows up, and he already has a laundry list of medical problems, a benign heart murmur, and he is now on Keppra instead of phenobarbital for his Epilepsy. He also has problems with his gait and gross motor problems and we found a problem on his brain MRI this month, causing another diagnosis of Cerebral Palsy. Diane

Dear Jen,

I hope the following information will help.

NJAC 6A:14-4.1(g)

When a student with a disability transfers from one NJ school district to another or from an out-of-state school district to a NJ school district, the child study team of the district into which the student has transferred shall conduct an immediate review of the evaluation information and the IEP and, without delay, in consultation with the student's parents, provide a program comparable to that set forth in the student's current IEP until a new IEP is implemented, as follows:

NJAC 6A:14-4.1(g)2

If the student transfers from an out-of-state district, the appropriate school district staff shall conduct any assessments determined necessary and, within 30 days of the date the student enrolls in the district, develop and implement a new IEP for the student.

SPRING HOPPIN’ BEGINS!

Hop, Skip & a Jump begins yet another season of exciting activities classes for children with special needs! Come watch your child live the thrill of finding friends through the HOP favorites as well as our

NEW SPRING OFFERINGS!

Our most popular winter class Hop, Skip & Games is back twice a week.

Children learn to interact with each other through board games and small group activities.

Typical peers guide our participants through the maze of finding, making and applying the art of friendship strategies to their world.

Leap into Legos® is our newest class based on research* that found playing in a group with Legos® promoted social growth in children with challenges such as high-functioning autism and Asperger syndrome. This amazing program allows children to learn compromise, listen and focus on others and to express their own feelings and ideas . . . . all through having FUN!

Spring enrollment is now in full swing!

Our schedule is attached. For more information contact us at hopskipjump@... or (908) 658-5931.

*Reference: (http://www.timesonlie.co.uk/tol/life_and_style/article4876937.ece). All children will be screened for capability to participate in and benefit fromspecific social skills settings. Enrollment acceptance will be determined by Hop, Skip & a Jump staff. Decisions are final and space is limited.

Hello Renay,

My son is currently enrolled in the preschool disabled program in Bridgewater, NJ. He recently was re-evaluated to determine eligibility for services as he will be entering Kindergarten this fall. At his IEP meeting this past wednesday, after 45 minutes of listening to all of his deficits, they informed us that despite all of his needs he is no longer eligible for special ed services/classification for kindergarten. I will be happy to elaborate, but the bottom line is that my husband and I strongly disagree with that decision, and feel that he needs special ed services. I'm not sure what my next step should be. If this is something I can handle easily with some direction that's fine, if I need to hire you to help me that's also fine...like I said, I was just floored that they could de-classifiy him and just don't know where to go from here before I sign anything!! Any suggestions are warmly welcomed! Thank you...

Dear Evelyn,

We are so excited to announce the passage of Senate Bill 39 in the New Mexico state legislature. Similar to bills introduced in 24 states this year, SB 39 will require private insurance companies to provide coverage of autism therapies and treatments. New Mexico is the ninth state to pass an autism insurance reform bill. Will your state be next?

See our press release below and check out our website at www.AutismVotes.org/stateinitiatives to get involved in passing an autism insurance reform bill in your state!

Thank you,

Elizabeth Emken
Vice President, Government Relations
Autism Speaks
