[quote=Anonymous]It’s because of staffing shortages and budget cuts. And there are a lot more students with special needs and more students with high needs. Special education is supposed to be “whatever the kid needs in their IEP and least restrictive environment” (so we aren’t putting kids in wheelchairs in self-contained classes, or kids with mild ID’s or learning disabilities on a non-degree track if they can handle standard classes with some accommodations). But in practice, staffing always comes into play and tough decisions have to be made based on that. Even though that’s not supposed to happen. They aren’t supposed to use not enough teachers/staff as an excuse to not give a kid as many services as they need … but they always do. [/quote]
