CLARINDA, Iowa (AP) – Iowa officials say Clarinda Academy has continually failed to provide adequate schooling to its special education students. The Iowa Department of Education says the private academy for troubled youths uses a “cut-and-paste, one-size-fits-all” approach to treatment and teaching of special education students.

Des Moines Register reports the state has ordered the academy to make improvements and offer additional educational services to children who were ill-served by its practices within the past 14 months. The department investigated and issued a report last week, following a complaint filed in June by Disability Rights Iowa.

The academy didn’t respond to the Register’s attempts to seek comment.
