Guest guest Posted April 16, 2008 Report Share Posted April 16, 2008 Hey Tonya- You're way behind in the posts. It would probably be a good idea to catch up on the threads before responding to misunderstandings that have already been addressed and put to rest. No need to go around the mulberry bush. Just a thought. Isn't there a Disability Message Board in Texas that doesn't focus on autism and would cover some of us who want to address the needs of the disability community as a whole? I have family members with other disabilities too, but right now I'm focused on the urgency of children with autism not getting their needs met in a timely way in our state, and the outrageous legal battles families are facing much more in this area of disability than the others. I kind of thought that's what this message board was for. > > > > $7 billion in reserve sounds like a lot of money until you consider that > > Texas had 4,576,993 students enrolled in public schools in the 2006-2007 > > school year.
