Are schools required to provide American Sign Language Interpreters for deaf students?
I worked with a student with autism for a few months in school. He was also deaf. He had an interpreter and other staff who knew quite a bit of sign language. But, I have been told there is a deaf student at an elementary school in my school district without an interpreter. (This child is also mentally handicapped.) Are there any laws, state or federal, that require schools to hire interpreters for deaf or hearing impaired students?
If the child has an IEP or 504 (which they should) then absolutely the law says the school MUST hire one however if the parent doesn't know this and request it then the school isn't required to do it. They are only required to provide what is writen in the IEP. If the mother wants her child to have that she needs to call a meeting and submit a request for an interpreter in writing. Then the school has to give reasons why they are saying no and the mom can get a due process hearing if they refuse.
This is all part of "IDEA" which stands for Individuals with Disabilities Education Act. Children with disabilities are protected under this law and the school must provide anything the child needs in order to get a free appropriate education.

DESPITE the global economic meltdown that has adversely affected even the United States, American people are expected to do Christmas shopping at a level not far from that of last year. But, there's no way of cancelling Christmas, at least for the Americans.
Unlike in other countries in Europe and Asia (where government and people are moving heaven and earth to cut holiday expenses), the American people still finds Christmas something to be festive about.
In the United States, people would maintain a festive mood through holiday shopping, as economists describe US economy as on its way to recovery. Speculations however show that this year's Christmas spending in the US would be the lowest in ten years.
Shopping Less but Not Gone
According to Pollsters Gallup, there would still be shopping for American people, whose sights remained set on a festive mood. Shopping however would be less as US has not totally bailed itself out of the financial crisis. There would also be less Christmas vacations, so as the holiday decors used in pumping up the mood.
There are however some, who are looking into a "very bleak" Christmas for them.
Some Good News
US economic analysts however remain optimistic even as they claimed that the financial meltdown is slowly veering away as reflected in declining statistics representing the number of American people being laid off from their work. Since January, the number of unemployed Americans stood at a very low level (in fact the lowest) which translates to a brighter business prospect as fewer Americans are displaced.
Fewer lay-offs translate to less dying companies. Activities in the business sector have also been showing positive signs. There are however doubts companies on tapping new their displaced workforce anew.
Prices of household goods have so far been affordable even as economists attribute low commodity prices to inflation turn-out, which is expected of an economy suffering from slump. This development is translated into some sort of life sign for the American families, who are starting to be lured back to shopping.
Since October last year, prices of consumer products are down by 1.3 % all because of inflation.
Simultaneously, there are efforts from the US government to keep prices of basic commodities within reach through the formulation and implementation of new business policies designed to stabilize the trading system and eventually see American families trooping back into malls and department stores.
Earlier, Bernard Baumohl, chief global economist of the Economic Outlook Group said that there are several indicators which appear more of good news for the US government.
Just for Kids
Despite economic forecasts, many jobless Americans still don't see themselves as shopping, claiming that their bank accounts have already dried up. Still they intend to share gifts, which they will make, themselves.
There are, however, families who'd still try to make their Christmas "festive of sorts" not because they wanted to but because Christmas is for kids. The effort to keep the magical atmosphere and spirit of Christmas afloat remains among many American families.
For those moderately affected by the economic meltdown, they are simply cutting back on expenses and seriously considering downgraded celebrations. American families would never allow Christmas to be postponed. GP
