[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah, I'm a "let the whole system burn" teacher.  I don't care what happens to it anymore.  Truly.  3 years and I'm done.  I truly believe there's going to be a whole meltdown, there'll be entire schools that have to close and or class sizes in the 40's or 50's, and eventually special ed will have to be taken over through private insurance.  But again, I don't care anymore.  This system has chewed me up and spit me out.  Let it burn.[/quote]

There's a small group of posters that get hard at the thought of getting children with special needs out of public schools so that they and their kids won't have to see them anymore.

Keep it in your pants. It isn't going to happen.[/quote]

I don’t think this was what the PP was saying, but that said, I do think that such a proposal would pass at this point if it was put to a public vote. Classrooms are just far too disruptive now for any learning to take place, and the majority of people are sick of it. The laws should be changed to only allow kids to stay in mainstream classrooms, special ed diagnoses or not, if they do not interfere with the learning of other students.[/quote]

You seem to suddenly have a bulge in the front of your pants, too.

Would a referendum like that pass? Maybe. Lots of crazy ideas could pass a vote of the masses. But it is never going to happen, not the least because it is unworkable.

It's not clear it would pass even a vote of the masses. Have you looked at how many kids these days have IEPs or 504 plans?[/quote]
