And Before You Can Say "New Q&A"...

...there is a new one!

Dated August 6, 2007, NYSED has posted the most recent guidance. Of particular note is C-22 which discusses toy guns and E-4 and E-5 discussing further the issue of determining manifestation of disability and reporting.

Trainings and Question and Answer Document

Hello folks,



So we turned around and it was August - the month that the ever-popular VADIR road show comes to a theater near you. The official tour schedule can be viewed at http://nyscenterforschoolsafety.org/vadirschedule07.pdf (and in the previous posting). Please call the regional coordinator for your area to register.





Also, your VR just wanted to be sure and let you know that right after the July 23 update session, NYSED posted its updated Q&A Document. The most recent version now available is dated June 25, 2007.

The new Q&A contains new information regarding toy and imitation guns as well as some new language related to the manifestation of disability issue.



Please keep checking back for updates. Also, if you actually read this blog and have a question we would be absolutely tickled to answer one of your posts!



Keep in touch and stay safe!
