Nearly one in six rhode island children 15.7 percent children actually were notdisabled, but just peers, DiPaola (Office of special needs) said, special
http://www.ri.net/sorico/reading_recovery.htm
Reading Recovery Revived in Southern Rhode Island After a brief lapse in service, the Southern Rhode Island Collaborative has once again put the Reading Recovery intervention into the offerings to schools and school districts. Rhode Island has developed a consortium of sites to serve the State in the various regions. Because of the definite need in the area of reading and writing and the devotion of many advocates, the intervention has once again been reinstated in this area with hiring of a Teacher Leader in the Southern Rhode Island region. Patricia Starnes comes to us after working several years in Reading Recovery. She was trained by Billie Askew at Texas Woman's University and continued to work as a Teacher Leader in South Texas, Connecticut, and Massachusetts. While in Massachusetts, she worked directly under Irene Fountas at Lesley University and received further training as a trainer of Literacy Coordinators for the Literacy Collaborative (formerly ELLI). Starnes' bilingual proficiency led her to be involved in Descubreindo La Lectura, a Spanish reconstruction of Reading Recovery and the development of materials for use in Literacy Collaborative classrooms where children are learning to read in Spanish. Reading Recovery is a valuable service that schools provide for first grade children who are struggling in reading and writing. The intervention targets children before they have fallen into a cycle of failure and the majority of them become successful readers and writers. Actually, the program has two positive outcomes. The children who are unable to meet the average range of performance within 20 weeks of service are then clearly identified as needing Special Education services. This allows for better identification of the Special Education population and the children's programs can be more readily identified.

Paul V. Sherlock, who directed the study and serves as vice chair of the House Finance Committee. “We commissioned this study to make sure that students with special needs are receiving the very best education available.” The Rhode Island General Assembly commissioned the Study on the Education of Children with Disabilities in 1999. The study examines special education within the context of school reform and provides information about children with disabilities and their special education programs. The study investigates four specific areas: Factors that influence the disproportionate designation of students as disabled and their special education programming;
