The U.S. Department of Education’s Office of Special
Education Programs has released question 5 in their series of comment
solicitations as part of the results driven accountability reform currently
underway for IDEA. You can read and respond to Question 5 by clicking here. The
Results Driven Accountability process seeks to emphasize educational results
and functional outcomes for students with disabilities and creating a system
that maximizes resources available. OSEP posts each question on the Department of
Education blog to solicit comments from stakeholders and special educators.

You can read the responses to Question 1, Question 2, Question 3, and Question 4 on the Department of Education’s blog. Question 5 requests comments on OSEP’s Results Drive Accountability Core Principles. Read and respond by clicking here.
