    Is anybody out there involved in the PLCs (Primary Language Class)? The Board is currently reviewing this program by committee and will be making decisions in November or December. Please make your voice heard if your child is involved in this or an ELDC.

    This is from MACSE (Minister’s Advisory Council on Special Education)

    On-line Support for Parents and Students in the Development of the IEP
    Funding has been provided to the Learning Disabilities Association of Ontario (LDAO) to work collaboratively with the Ministry of Education and parents across the province to develop a website that will be a resource to parents and students regarding their consultative role in the development and implementation of the IEP.
    The website is being designed to reflect the needs of both the English and French-language parents and students. Website development is ongoing and it is anticipated that the site will be live by November 2009.
