Re: 8 VAC 20-81-110, pg. 154:   IEP PROGRESS REPORTS

I oppose the proposed elimination (of the current requirement) that IEP progress reports be provided for students with disabilities at least as often as periodic report cards are provided to non-disabled students.  There is no justification for this change!  Disabled students “count” just as much as nondisabled students!
