Jeez. That makes no sense. Hopefully OH districts don't follow suit with the SPED cuts. That would be no bueno for me in 2 years (although I have family in CA and have no problems relocating if it comes to that.)

Sidenote about class sizes: A friend of mine teaches kindergarten in a larger suburban district around here. Kindergarten registration is starting, and she was just told recently that she should plan for at least 40 kids this fall. Crazy.
