[quote=Anonymous][quote]The research is really clear that the kids with the most significant disabilities, including those with multiple disabilities, benefit the most from inclusion. [/quote] This may be true. However, when you consider how many kids are pulled out for AAP--and, thus, do not have those with the multiple disabilities in their classes, that leaves the "regular" kids with these kids in their classes--and, if we are going to "mainstream" those with disabilities, then why are the AAP kids not mainstreamed if they have "special needs" because they are so smart. I am for inclusion of ALL kids--except those who cannot manage in a normal classroom. I've known two families who fought to have their disabled kids included with "regular" kids--while placing their other kids in GT centers. In other words, they did not want their bright kids mainstreamed, but they wanted their disabled kids mainstreamed. [/quote]
