Description:
Thirty-five students are now receiving tuition and textbook stipends in programs for special
education. Eight of the students are now attending upper division classes
at ASU on the CAC campus. At least 5 more students will be starting at ASU in the Fall of
2008. We currently have a waiting list of 5 students.
Most students are or have been paraeducators in Pinal County and all have
signed an agreement to work in Pinal County as special education teachers for at
least 3 years after receiving their degree and full special education certification.
All students were informed that they must maintain continuous enrollment of
at least 2 courses a semester towards the special education certification to qualify
for continuing grant support.
