The type of clothing worn in a family's home, the language spoken and
other cultural markers could influence whether special-education
students receive taxpayer-funded private-school tuition, under a bill
passed last month by the New York state Legislature.
Education officials would have to consider a student's "home environment and family background" when deciding the best setting for special-education children under the bill. Currently, decisions about
private-school placement have generally been based on academics and the
child's disability.
