None of this will mean anything if parents of children with special needs are still mistreated, disrespected, not included or otherwise not involved in the education process for their children. The Mayor is still in control, the Chancellor is still the Chancellor, there is a leadership void as of July 1 at the Office of Special Education Initiatives, and we are still out of compliance with IDEA. This is almost as revolting as our elected Senator-behavior in Albany.

They have few legal responsibilities so even if proven to be illegal under whatever law prevails, there would be no serious consequences. Meanwhile parents have a forum for debate and discussion.
