[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sorry if I missed this (have not read all 11 pages of this thread) but why are they moving to self contained classes?! It segregates students and isolates them general classroom ciriculum. I though hardly any schools did this anymore. It seems like going backwards. [/quote] A small percentage of students still need this (e.g. medically fragile or students with autism who are nonverbal). Some are there for just a portion of the day. Parents have to agree to the placement. DCPS used to privately place virtually all such students and send them dozens of miles from home to school. Now they are putting self-contained classrooms in a couple schools in each ward, so that these students aren't bussed so far from home. [/quote]
