Special education: OSPI Budget request for full funding of Special Education services in Washington state
 
January 9th marks the start of the 105-day 2023 biennial legislative session. The Washington Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction has put forward several budget requests in relation to education, where of one is a request for the state to fully fund special education services in Washington. The request asks that the Legislature remove the 13.5% cap on state special education funding, and increase the special education tiered multiplier to fully cover the cost of special education services and sustain the state’s investment in inclusionary practices. (OSPI, 2023) 
To read the full document for the budget request, please visit:
