Rocklin Unified’s Beleaguered Special Ed Program Seeks Change

Rocklin, Calif.-  The Rocklin Unified School District has contracted with San Francisco based WestED to perform a study on its beleaguered Special Education department. 

Allegations of physical abuse and administrative cover-up at Breen Elementary are among several issues which have been plaguing the district for years and have spurred what many parents see as a long overdue opportunity to better meet the needs of the special education community.
