Up to their games already in Broward for ESE parents via emails

It's very upsetting to know some Broward School Principals are ALREADY UP TO THEIR GAMES THEY LOVE TO PLAY WITH ESE PARENTS!!! 

The bantering of emails already ~ The TIME & EFFORT Principals & ESE Staff from 2 different Broward Public schools are already putting in back and forth to these parents is not a way to create the good customer service talked about so often in our district. 

Must be a 'green light' given to Principals from District Administrators or a new training on how to respond to ESE parent emails. 

*This information is coming from 2 different parents that have children with Down syndrome.

Digital 5 What Parents Need To Know aka "ALL" 5th Graders in 27 schools get a LAPTOP! Broward Public Schools

Digital 5 What Parents Need...: Digital 5 video with quesions and answers for parents.

"ALL" 5th Graders in 27 schools in Broward County Pubic Schools will be getting a LAPTOP! Laptops that they will 'eventually' be able to TAKE HOME for in the classroom and for homework.

Do you have a 5th grader in one of the 27 Elementary schools? Is your 5th grader on an IEP? Is your 5th grader in an ESE ONLY Classroom and not on the Regular Diploma Track?

I do hope ALL of my 5th Grade DS Peeps attending one of the 27 schools listed, is provided a laptop. Stay on top of this wonderful program that Broward County Public Schools is now rolling out for "ALL" 5th Graders in the 27 Public Elementary Schools that are slated to receive them. 

Did the video say 3000 students total will be receiving a laptop? How many of those students are ESE and in an ESE ONLY CLASSROOM? 

It would be nice to know.....

We are experiencing the Civil Rights Movement of ADA & IDEA in 2013+.

Seems no matter which AGENCY in the State of Florida accepting Federal Funds...our children with Down syndrome are the ones being denied & discriminated at every level of government!!! 

We are experiencing the Civil Rights Movement of ADA & IDEA in 2013 right now. 

Every Agency needs to be held accountable for their Actions against people! The Discrimination & Segregation need to end!!

*This absolutely may very well be true in other States with any and all other persons with Disabilities. 

Do you find this to be true? What State are you from?

I have a daughter with Down syndrome and I live in the State of Florida.
