What changes in actions, services, and Given the unique needs of English learners, Low Income, Foster Youth, and students with disabilities, OUSD will continue to
expenditures will be made as a result of provide professional development, services, and support to meet the needs of these students. Students with disabilities are
reviewing past progress and/or changes to still a critical group of students that need further exploration in addressing their learning needs, especially when combined
goals? with being an English Language Learner. In honoring the diverse learning needs of every student, colleges can make a
number of accommodations for these students, some of which can be transferred into high schools, such as extended testing
periods, instructor provided notes, and adaptive equipment and technology. According to a report from the National Center
on Learning Disabled (2014), about 41 percent of students with disabilities complete college as compared to 52 percent of
the general population. In order to increase both access and similar resources that are available to college students with
disabilities, the following actions will be considered for students with disabilities (amongst other learners as well): Online
education is one of the benefits that allow students to work at their own pace, read materials with appropriate font size,
watch videos and lectures as needed. This is beneficial for students with physical disabilities as it makes the learning more
accessible, especially when needing access to voice‐text software; Co‐teaching in the inclusive classroom is a key program
that has enabled students to better engage with typical peers in core content classrooms. Co‐teaching has proven its success
when teachers continue to self select and design courses that will meet the needs of at least 10% of the students with
disabilities population: inclusive learning model.
For these reasons, OUSD plans to expand co‐teaching program next school year and will ensure all materials, resources, and
services for English Learners, Low Income and Foster Youth students will be provided to enhance their education.
