No matter the size of the school district, special education is a key component of its curriculum and budget. There are numerous legal restrictions, as well as procedures, that districts must follow.
On May 24 at 4:30 p.m., Conversations on New Jersey Education, NJSBA’s Internet radio program, will feature a discussion on special education. Host Ray Pinney will speak with Dr. Gerry Crisonino, who is both the director of special education for the School District of Jersey City and a school board member in Union County; and Nathanya Simon, senior partner with the law firm of Schwartz, Simon, Edelstein & Celso.
About the Program Conversations on New Jersey Education is similar to a live radio talk show, except that it is broadcast through the Internet. The 45-minute show airs live, but recordings are also available to download later, or to listen to “on demand.” To hear the live or previously recorded broadcasts, visit NJSBA’s BlogTalkRadio web page.
