[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I teach self-contained. Your kid will get much more targeted intervention at her level. I would absolutely jump on it. You are not signing her up for life. Kids move back into gen ed all the time. [/quote]

I teach in a school and have never seen a kid move from self contained to gen Ed. Not once in 17 years. They may get included in social studies, but they continue to be based in the self contained room [/quote]

I work in a school with a self-contained program aimed at kids with multiple needs working at least 2 years below grade level and we usually have at least 1 kid per year sent back to their home school because they have outgrown the program and are near grade level. We also have multiple kids each year who are in the self-contained class as their "homeroom" but are included almost all day except for maybe just ELA, or just math. It is absolutely not a one-way ticket. [/quote]

PP with kids in HS here.  I, personally, know a number of kids (including my own) who moved out of self-contained over the years.  I don't know where you're teaching that not a single kid moved into Gen Ed.[/quote]

I teach in DCPS. The difference in self contained programs in MCPS and DCPS is staggering.  So are the outcomes. There is no comparison. [/quote]

PP with kids in HS here.  We're in FCPS.  While I recognize there are differences in the different systems, the federal requirements/laws are the same.  Parents also have the right to refuse to sign an IEP if they don't agree with placement.  [/quote]
