Policy Statement Pediatrics Volume 108, Number 2 August 2001, pp 516-518 School Bus Transportation of Children With Special Health Care Needs AMERICAN ACADEMY OF PEDIATRICS Committee on Injury and Poison Prevention ABSTRACT. School systems are responsible for ensuring that children with special needs are safely transported on all forms of federally approved transportation provided by the school system, and a plan should be developed to provide the most current and proper support to children with special transportation requirements. This statement provides current guidelines for the protection of child passengers with specific health care needs, including those with a tracheostomy, those requiring use of car seats, or those transported in wheelchairs. Guidelines that apply to general school transportation should be followed, including the training of staff, provision of nurses or aides if needed, establishment of a written emergency evacuation plan, and a comprehensive infection control program. Research provides the basis for recommendations concerning occupant securement for children in wheelchairs and children with other special needs who are transported on a school bus. Pediatricians can help their patients by being aware of guidelines for restraint systems for children with special needs and by remaining informed of new resources. Pediatricians can also play an important role at the state and local level in the development of school bus specifications.

25. LII: Law About...Sports contract can be modified to accommodate the special needs and talents federal JudicialDecisions US Supreme Court Recent Sports Law Decisions; state Material. http://www.law.cornell.edu/topics/sports.html

sports law: an overview Sports Law encompasses a multitude areas of law brought together in unique ways. Issues such as antitrust, contracts, and torts are quite common. For further information in these areas see: Antitrust Contracts Torts Sports Law can be roughly divided into the areas of amateur, professional, and international sports. The distinction between a professional and amateur athlete is somewhat tenuous. So-called "amateur" student/athletes at universities often receive scholarships and other forms of compensation. Also, keep in mind that even though an athlete may be defined as an amateur by one organization, he or she may not be an amateur according to another. Of course, this leads to even more confusion. A simplistic, yet useful definition is that amateur athletes participate in sports as an avocation while professional athletes are involved in sports as a vocation Amateur Sports The concept of amateur sports includes a range of activities from an individual casual weekend athlete to high school athletics to extensively organized intercollegiate or international competitions. Athletic activities are often organized and managed by individual groups that establish rules for eligibility and competition, and courts are often unwilling to interfere with the actions of these groups as long as their rules are reasonably applied. Perhaps the most important of these organizations is the National Collegiate Athletic Association ("NCAA"). The NCAA is the governing body for intercollegiate sports and has over 1000 member colleges and universities. Although roughly 50% of the NCAA's members are sponsored by state governments, the Supreme Court has suggested that the eligibility rules of the NCAA are not state action for constitutional law purposes.

Policy Statement Least Restrictive Environment Illinois State Board of Education February 2000 State Board of Education Commitment The Illinois State Board of Education (“ISBE”) approves and adopts this policy on Least Restrictive Environment (“LRE”) to ensure that it meets the requirements of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act of 1997 (“IDEA” 97) and its associated regulations, 34 C.F.R. §300.550-330.556. The ISBE will ensure, as required by federal laws, rules and regulations that the State of Illinois has in effect an appropriate LRE policy and relevant rules and regulations. The ISBE will provide active and visible leadership to ensure that all public or private institutions and care facilities under State Board control and jurisdiction are aware of and practice the tenets of LRE. Placement in the Least Restrictive Environment LRE requires that, to the maximum extent appropriate, students with disabilities aged 3 through 21, in public or private institutions or other care facilities, are educated with children who are not disabled [34 C.F.R. §300.550 (b)(1)]. The ISBE will monitor programs and institutions that serve students with disabilities to ensure that the first placement option considered is a regular education environment, with the use of supplemental aids and services as needed.

37. A Primer On School Finance aid is distributed by the state and federal governments according to the needs ofthe legislative priorities, and pressure from special interest groups http://www.edsource.org/pub_edfct_schfin.cfm

Advanced Search A Primer on School Finance October 1998 Every summer the California Legislature and Governor decide how much money will go to K–12 public education and how it will be divided among school districts, county offices of education, and the California Department of Education. Although some changes do occur annually, the school finance system has stayed about the same for over 20 years. Sources of Revenue The column on the left of the diagram shows the five sources of money for schools in California. The federal government contributes about 9% of the elementary and secondary education budget. About 58% of the funds are from the state — business, corporate and personal income taxes, sales taxes, and some special taxes. Local property taxes are about 24%. Post-Proposition 13, the Legislature and Governor decide how much property tax money to allocate to K–12 schools. Miscellaneous local revenues are about 7% of the total. These come from a variety of sources, including fees on commercial or residential construction; special elections for parcel taxes (needs a two-thirds vote for approval); contributions from foundations, business, and individuals; cafeterias; and interest on investments. The tiny line at the bottom of the column — less than 2% of the total, or about $120 per student — is from the California Lottery.
