[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Irony: I've know two families that fought to keep their child mainstreamed while sending their other child to what was then "GT." They wanted the struggling child in the regular education system. These kids were not disruptive, but were very, very slow learners. DS was in a class with one who needed lots and lots of extra help. This was second grade and it was okay because there was another teacher there, but she ended up elsewhere after a few years. She needed more special help than most. The irony was that they wanted their other child in an accelerated class. [/quote] +1 I see this often. Parents want their SPED kids to be mainstreamed, but insist their "gifted/advanced" kids be given separate classes. It's nutty - not to mention, unfair when school systems acquiesce to these parents.[/quote] What do you want them to do?[/quote] You don't see the double standard? I'm not talking about kids with mild special needs. [/quote]
