Title

Students with Significant Disabilities 

Description

  • Descriptions of students identified according to Bulletin 1508 can be found on pages 25-60.
  • Both the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, 2004 (IDEA) and No Child Left Behind (NCLB) require that students with significant disabilities have access to the general education curriculum.
  • To that end, the Extended Standards, based on Louisiana content standards, benchmarks, and Grade Level Expectations (GLEs) have been developed.
  • Louisiana Alternate Assessment 1 (LAA 1) http://www.louisianaschools.net/lde/saa/2219.html is Louisiana’s assessment for students with significant cognitive disabilities.
  • Materials and resources for students with Significant Disabilities addressing Louisiana Extended Standards can be found at http://sda.doe.louisiana.gov.
