[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 479997, member: 1514"] NCLB was great in theory but a disaster in reality. Mainstreaming sounded good in theory but was a disaster in reality. I read some great books when I was a teen and actually thinking of getting into teaching Special Education. I wanted to teach special children. The very difficult ones, probably what today would be autistic or EBD. At that point in time they kids were completely self contained and these were elementary school kids. Maybe 6 to 8 kids to a class with one teacher and one aid. I loved it. The teacher worked with the kids all the years they were in the school so there was no transitions. Lunches came to the classrooms. Then inclusion started and the classes were fazed out and the teacher lost her job and the kids were moved into regular classrooms and they started acting horribly and it was a mess. It was a mess.
