Excellent new report from the PPIC--www.ppic.org
I just read Stephen Lipscomb's new report (January 2009), "Students with Disabilities and California's Special Education Program," found it very useful, and wanted to share it with you. Research support was provided by Karina Jaquet.
The report discusses both programming and funding for special education in California. One thing I really like about it is that the report clearly separates out the (a) costs for special education from the (b) costs of educating students with disabilities--as the second of these includes the regular education services that most students with IEPs receive. This report clarified my confusion on the matter.
You can download it at the Public Policy Institute of California website:

Happy reading!
