	Basic Information - Special education
		Special education is a set of services -- including specially designed instruction, related services, supplemental aids and supports, and transition services -- that children with disabilities have a right to receive to meet their individualized needs.
		Special education services are for students who are classified as having one of 13 different disabling conditions: autism, deaf-blindness, emotionally disturbed, hard of hearing, learning disabled, mentally retarded, multiply disabled, orthopedically impaired, speech-impaired, traumatic brain injury, visually impaired, and other health impairment.
		A key concept in special education is that children with disabilities should, to the maximum extent appropriate, be educated with their non-disabled peers, or – as the law puts it – in the least restrictive environment.

		Special education costs at public schools have risen dramatically, becoming more of a driving force behind rising property tax bills and fueling the debate over how those programs are funded.
		Although school officials say traditional school programs haven't suffered at the expense of increasing special education costs, they fear unpopular budget cuts could soon become unavoidable, particularly at districts that decide to accept state gambling proceeds and the spending restrictions tied to that money.
		Special education costs at those districts combined increased by an annual average of 14 percent between 1994-95 and this school year, while overall school spending has gone up a yearly average of 8 percent during that time.
