Intro to article:
A Call To Action From a Concerned Parent
I am a public school father. I have a child in special education and a child in general education. I have received papers from a source at Wilbur Ave. Elementary that glaringly reveal the plans and completely callous attitude towards our Special Needs program in the public schools by Superintendent Ramon Cortines. The documents are damning for so many reasons. The planned changes show a complete lack of preparation and thought. The plans illustrate the desperation of LAUSD to cut costs at all costs. It seems that there is one thing that has been conveniently left out of all of the proposed cuts. That would, of course, be any thought for our children.
