S2:E1: Sacrificing our special ed kids and gen ed teachers for diversity and inclusion gone awry I Know A Thing

    • Personal Journals

Today, we interview a parent of a special needs child, who is concerned about cutbacks to the special education program. Learning Centers that previously supported special needs children have been eliminated in favor of "inclusion" into general ed classrooms, without the funding of a sufficient amount of para educators to support this initiative. Many special ed parents are very upset about these changes, and worry that their children aren't receiving the education they are entitled to.
