      • Marceline R-5 Special Services and Early Learning Director Dawn Lichtenberg (center) presents the IDEA evaluation at Monday’s Marceline Board of Education meeting.  She reported that the number of special education students in the District has been steadily declining over the years, and she credits this to interventions in their Elementary careers.  
Lichtenberg reported that the District is meeting their state goals, and boasted a 100 percent graduation rate in 12-13 for special education students.  She did caution that the special education students seen from non-public schools could meet their proportionate share of funding in this and coming school years, and the funding for these students will be addressed at that time.
