Ohio Special Education Profile, 2011
Ohio Coalition for the Education of Children with Disabilities
This report provides a brief, but substantive, profile of the special needs student population in Ohio, including academic performance and graduation trends and an overview of special education funding and related policy issues. The report's central message is that investments in students with special educational needs produce substantial results for the students, their families and the broader society. These investments empower students to help themselves to advance educationally and vocationally and, in the vast majority of cases, to become self-sufficient citizens. It is designed to serve as an informational resource for policy makers, parents, professionals and the broader statewide community.
