Special Education Placement: Is it What You Know or Where You Live?
Keyword(s):
Danielson and Bellamy's article on federal data on segregated placement of students with disabilities (see pp. 448–455 of this issue) points out the failings in many situations to live up to the intent of Public Law 94–142, which clearly sets forth a presumption in favor of regular class placement in regular school buildings for children with disabilities. The need to eliminate geographic and funding restrictions to placement of students with disabilities in the least restrictive environment is stressed. Realistic but affirmative action and closer scrutiny of demonstration projects that have successfully integrated children with various disabilities into the regular classroom should be the focus of efforts.
