The trouble is that Amanda, although she graduated from Fayetteville High School, was never really part of the class of 2000. While she was learning basic academics, she missed out on the social opportunities that teach youngsters how to make friends and build relationships. That’s where the “self-contained classroom” concept of special education failed her, her mother believes. Even though Amanda attended some regular classes, like physical education, and ate lunch with her “typical” peers, she spent most of her time in a classroom with other special education students and never enjoyed the full extracurricular experience that is high school. “It’s not about sitting in an algebra class to learn algebra,” said Kerry George, who was for many years a special education teacher at Elmdale Elementary School in Springdale. “In a perfect world, I would love for her to have had instruction in the areas she needed — home economics, vocational education, computers, skills she could apply later in life — but with kids who were typical. That way, she could feel like she belonged to a group.

Nancie Payne, M.S. Special  Learning  Needs  Consultant Estimates of the percentage of U.S. school-age children with learning difficulties are as high as 30 percent. [1]  In its 1987 report to Congress, the Interagency Committee on Learning Disabilities summarized a review of available learning disabilities prevalence research and concluded that: In the absence of good prevalence data, the Committee believes that 5 percent to 10 percent is a reasonable estimate of the percentage of persons affected by learning disabilities.  It is clear the prevalence is somewhat higher among socio-economically disadvantaged populations. [2] In studies conducted by the President’s Committee on Employment for People with Disabilities it was found that 10 to 14 percent of adults in the workplace have learning disabilities. [3] A survey of 567 adults with learning disabilities conducted by the association for Children and Adults with Learning Disabilities (now Learning Disabilities Association of America) found that 210 (37 percent) were unemployed.

Issues ... about Change Volume 4 Number 3 Inclusion: The Pros and Cons Executive Summary Few issues in education generate more discussion, confusion, or apprehension than the topic of inclusion. It is an issue that has outspoken advocates on all sides, whether staunchly for, avowedly against, or somewhere in between. Certainly, for a school or district to change and accommodate a more inclusive approach to providing services to students with disabilities as well as a host of other "at-risk" students, and do it in a way that ensures the success of all, will require significant restructuring. Inclusion is more than reconfiguring special education services. It involves an "overhaul" of the entire educational system. Special education and regular education faculty/staff roles and relationships will change, as will the traditional rules under which "things" happen within the classroom, campus, and district. Therefore, understanding the issues and ramifications prior to undertaking such a restructuring effort will be useful. Historical Background During the 1950s and 1960s, parents of children with disabilities organized to pressure courts and legislatures for changes in educational services available to their children. They began to seek access to public schools as an issue of civil rights for those with disabilities. Among the results of these efforts was The Education for All Handicapped Children Act of 1975 (PL 94-142), which mandated that all children, regardless of disability, had the right to a free, appropriate education in the least restrictive environment. As a result, resource rooms and self-contained classrooms for those with disabilities expanded in public schools. PL 94-142 was updated in 1991 by the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA).

JOHNSON, MANAGER 1409 NORTH FIRST STREET ABERDEEN, SD 57401 VOL. 16 #1 March 1996 EDUCATING RAFAEL. The 1-17-96 EDUCATION WEEK contains this article on DS/INCLUSION, plus OBERTI AND THE LAW (the case is one of 1/2 dozen on inclusion). The case indicates schools have the burden to prove why a student should not be included in a regular classroom. The Oberti's first took the school to court five years earlier, but lost. The Appeals judge in '92 said: "Inclusion is a right, not a privilege for a select few." The author (Lynn Schnaiberg) says the two sides to the case are speaking in different languages: the school saw Rafael as half-empty, but his parents saw him as half-full. In concluding OBERTI AND THE LAW Schnaiberg says: "Regardless of where educators stand philosophically on inclusion, many disability-rights advocates have made the link between inclusion and racial desegregation. And they warn that if schools don't move fast enough to better integrate their disabled children, the courts may step in to do the job for them." See Page 776 of the 21/28 December '95 NATURE for this report by the Harvard Department of Neurology ( Bruce Yanker , Enders 260, 300 Longwood Ave., Boston, MA 02115). In the final paragraph the authors state that "increased generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) may contribute to abnormal brain developmental and mental retardation in DS." Their final sentence says, "if there is in vivo confirmation then the neuro protective effects of antioxidants may provide an important therapeutic approach to mental retardation and the prevention of Alzheimer's disease in DS individuals."
