[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What does "push in" mean?[/quote]

It is misusing a Special Education term.  In Special Education, "push in" means the specialist, teacher or aide is in the gen ed or AAP classroom with the student(s).  Pull out is when the student leaves  their gen-ed or AAP classroom to get services.

Pre-covid, at our ES, the students changed classrooms for each core class.  The students in AAP math went to that classroom, the students in Gen-ed went to a different classroom and the pull out special education students went the another classroom.  - they only stayed with their homeroom for specials, lunch......

It sounds like the OP's school did the switching classrooms too.  [/quote]
I don't think OP's school is generally switching classrooms.  It sounds like there are maybe 5 gen ed kids who are taking advanced math, and the school's solution to providing those kids with advanced math is to have them join the AAP classroom for math.  OP is trying to boot the advanced math kids out of the AAP classroom under the pretext that it would increase risk for her child but actually because she doesn't want her child mixing with the lessers from gen ed.

She didn't ever answer as to whether she'd be fine with 13!!!!!! AAP kids staying in her classroom or whether she'd be fine with 7 AAP kids + 2 gen ed advanced math kids.  She has made it clear that she doesn't want LIII advanced math kids in her kid's classroom at all.  [/quote]

maybe she things one (or, god forbid, all) of those gen ed kids are outshining her snowflake. You know someone who cares as much about who is in the class as OP is listening to school everyday [/quote]
