Governor Spitzer signed the "Burden of Proof" bill. Yay! Though I rather expected he would. A spec ed attorney I know was saying that she does think there's been a change in climate since Schaffer v. Weast, that school districts had gotten bolder in what they'd been attempting to do or not do.

It's always a balance: I can't help seeing the administrators I know as fairly nice human beings, at the same time I think they're making, comment dit-on, unhelpful decisions, decisions not in the best interests of children or families, and I don't want to be coopted or blinkered by my personal liking for someone.
