[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In MCPS they always have an extra teacher IME and they are typically smaller classes to begin with. [/quote]

+1  My kid was in class in elementary school where the teacher had an advanced credential in special education and had a higher than proportional number of special needs kids in the class. It included a child who couldn't walk who was nearly blind who had a 1:1 aide. It was a great experience to teach my child empathy and about how kids deal with limitations (all students got a little card with their names printed in Braille) where they were taught how to write their names on a Braille printing machine), and more selfishly, we parents loved that there was nearly always a second adult in the class.  The aide had her primary duties with her assigned child, but could easily step in to help a child if the teacher was busy with another student or if the teacher needed to run to the bathroom.   And yes, often these classes are smaller than the norm.[/quote]
