In a School Board News Today exclusive online story, NSBA has endorsed legislation by Rep. George Miller that would spell out the appropriate use of restraints and seclusion for all students. The move comes after a report by the General Accounting Office earlier this year found numerous accounts of abuse, primarily in special education classrooms, and a lack of training for teachers. In other news, the National Education Association and other unions are lobbying against a proposed tax on health-care benefits and members of Congress and their staffs will be served a typical school lunch on the Hill next week.
