[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can’t believe that there still aren’t protests in the streets from teachers about least restrictive environment. Yet they’re stressed out and quitting in droves. Do you guys not realize that the public would be behind you on this? You just need to make some noise so lawmakers notice the problem and start asking the public what they want. Laws can be changed.[/quote]

You want schools to segregate kids with developmental disabilities into separate classrooms? No, the public would not be behind you on that. Particularly not once parents of those children told their side of it.

The “f ‘em” attitude that the DMV has for children with autism, ADHD, and other developmental disorders is pretty incredible. Particularly from teachers.[/quote]

Always one person in every thread who is fantasizing about warehousing kids as long as it's not their kid.[/quote]

The really sad thing is the number of teachers that want to do that. Anything to get them out of their classrooms, I guess. Out of sight, out of mind.[/quote]

Well, I can see how your mind works through that comment. How disgusting.

I can say that I have never met a teacher who “wants to them out of their classrooms.: We do need all sped inclusion classes to be cotaught so that one teacher can manage behavior (for ALL kids not just SPED) while the other is teaching.  It works, but there just isn’t interest from parents at large, tax payers etc.   [/quote]

I take it you missed the earlier comment about getting rid of the practice of placing kids in the least restrictive environment. That was almost certainly from a teacher. And that wasn't the first post on dcum like that.

Separately there was the parent who didn't care about supports as long as her kids didn't need to be exposed to kids with special needs.[/quote]
