How do we meet the textbook requirements and still provide the student with functional level books for both diploma and non-diploma bound students?
The NPS must first decide the type of program that it will provide. There are two general categories—general education for the majority of students or functional skills for students with significant cognitive disabilities. Once the NPS has made its decision, it is obligated to obtain the same instructional materials consistent with EC § 56366.10(b)(1). For students with significant cognitive disabilities, the NPS should acquire the same instructional materials used by the public school district for like students. For these students, this often means a functional skills curriculum. As a final comment, the NPS should employ the accommodations and modifications as described in the student’s IEP.
