A posting on this topic about 10 days ago has generated several comments from a concerned parent & a group that she works with. She points out that many schools use these techniques & it is often hard to know what a school can do & has done with a given student.
Unfortunately, the federal government & agencies do not seem interested in addressing this. However, I want to point out that efforts at the state level can & has brought results in some states. Almost 10 years ago Texas passed a law placing specific regulations on schools. This was the result of a number of parents pushing & making the right contacts. While the law is not perfect, it is a step in the right direction. I have read that other states have passed similiar laws or are being made aware of the need for specific rules/laws on this issue.
