[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a gen ed teacher 100% against seclusion rooms for any child, ever.  If a child is that seriously dangerous, then hospitalization is in order.
At the same time, I'm a gen ed teacher often expected to "handle" kids with extreme behavioral and emotional needs.  There is a huge gap in what the law requires and what funding actually provides in terms of support for such students and their teachers.  [b]I propose doubling taxes to pay for appropriate help for all students in schools.  [/b]The safety of staff and the safety of all kids, gen ed and sped kids, is on the line.[/quote]

What??? All of the NT kids parents would revolt, and there are a lot more of us. There is already a disproportionate amount of taxpayer money and classroom teacher effort devoted to the SN kids. I would seriously move to another county if my county voted to do this.[/quote]

The PP is exactly right. There is too much money spent on American public school education for such mediocre results. The last thing SN departments need is more money. They already take up so much while the gifted kids who will actually benefit our future society are neglected.

I support higher salaries for teachers. If the general public knew how much $$ in public education is wasted on admin and frivolous contracts resulting from special interest lobbying, they would be horrified.[/quote]
