[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do you fight to stay in the mainstream class when no one agrees with you?[/quote] The folks I know in this situation had to hire a lawyer to stay in mainstream. FWIW on the mainstream versus segregation debate -- in DC, it can be easier to switch back and forth because each charter school is its own LEA. So if your child is in a segregated class in DCPS, for example, and you lottery into a charter and tell them your child can handle a general education environment with certain supports, they may be willing to give it a try. (Especially if the charter school doesn't have segregated classes, in which case, if your child truly needs a segregated environment the school will probably have to place your child in a private special needs school.)
