Private Christian School Analysis

Improved Essays
I went to a private Christian School throughout my school experience. The school that I went to from Kindergarden through 8th grade was actually very well versed in inclusion. Although private schools often get looked at as a school created specifically to exclude, I am very proud of my school for not falling into this category specifically when talking about student with special needs. My school established a special program to find students that had special needs and give them everything that they needed in school, this program translated into their parter school which was the high school that I went to. Now before I go any farther, there will be topics where the schools that I attended will not score very well, but in this category I am

It also touched on how inclusion works, and how more schools are starting to try and incorporate inclusion. While it is still a work in progress, inclusion is becoming a big part of life. Despite the fact the film was not perfect, they did a good job of stating how important and beneficial inclusion is.…

    This book is extremely relevant to my major, and it opened my eyes to how some students with disabilities are treated. This book was written in 2007, and I believe as a whole, future educators are being taught more about inclusiveness, and hopefully there aren’t many teachers that treat their students like Jonathan or Brent or Kent or Miles this way as a result of this. The school system does seem to struggle with disabilities though as a whole, and that is evident by the stories the kids of these parents…

    Although, I do agree that there are merits to full inclusion, I do not believe that it is the right choice for every child with a disability. There cannot be one rule that applies to all students with disabilities, which range from severely mentally handicapped to mild cases of ADHD. I agree with Kauffman, McGee and Brigham ’s assertion (2008) that the goals of full inclusion are more for the perception of normalization with a disregard of expected proficiency. Placing students who cannot function at the relative level of their peers “fosters the impression that students are fitting in,” (p.93) when in reality this in not that case.…

    Now, we speak of inclusion within our schools and I have to say I totally agree with it, especially those students like myself who just needed a little boost with my learning. Natural environments as well is wonderful it allows students to feel comfortable in their surrounds, this should have been used from the very beginning especially with the infants and toddlers. Then the least restrictive environments are placing children of all abilities in one classroom, With this I see pros and cons, Pros would be for both the non disabilities, student to be exposed to all types of children and with the children with disabilities to have regular students…

    The Sanctuary of School The essay I chose to write was over the short article of “The Sanctuary of School” by Lynda Barry. In this story it talks about the author Lynda Barry’s experience with the school from a young age. She talks about growing up in a home with her mom and her dad having money issues, relatives that kept moving in, her brother and her sleeping on the couch, and the constant fighting going on. She explains how she didn’t feel safe at home so she talks about school being a safe haven for her, and how lucky she was that she had Mrs. LeSane and Mr. Gunderson.…

    Throughout my essay, I would like to explain my background and experiences I have had with individuals with special needs, as well as discuss my thoughts and beliefs I have accumulated throughout my years of experience. My mother is a special education teacher at the same school I attending from preschool to high school graduation. She enrolled me into the special education pre-school at Central Cass and I was a peer model there for two years before moving onto kindergarten. I obviously don’t remember those days and I also don’t ever remember a “first experience” with someone with special needs. I have always been raised around individuals with exceptionalities and never thought that was different than anybody else.…

    Inclusion is becoming a hot topic in the debate of special needs students in general and special education classrooms. Inclusion classes are classes that contain students with and without disabilities. These specific classrooms are made for any student no matter the strength or the weakness in the academic field. These particular classes are becoming more prevalent in the school systems because they benefit both students with disabilities and without. Inclusion classrooms were created for all of the students to feel equal in the academic field.…

    Special education is in every school system to help students with disabilities have success in life. According to Artiles and colleagues research, children back in the 1800s were excluded from educational opportunities (Artiles, Harris-Murri, and Rostenberg, 2006, p. 260). Children with disabilities were often segregated into either a separate classroom or separate schools with curriculum that didn’t fit their needs (Artiles, 2006, p. 260). Children were held to low standards, but fortunately that is not the way we see special education today. With the introduction of the Individual with Disabilities Education Act otherwise known in IDEA in 2004 we see more of a movement towards inclusion (Department of Education, 2004).…

    Part 2: Special Education Law and Policies “As someone charged with ensuring equality in the school environment, you have heard the term inclusion-the principle that students with special needs, skill sets, and abilities should be integrated in publicly supported activities to the same extent as their nondisabled peers.” (Taylor, 2010, p. 8) To make sure that special education students are included in public education, school leaders must make sure that these students are a part of the least restrictive environment possible. There are many different stipulations that need to be fulfilled for a school to be in compliance with special education laws, but we will focus on five key ideas that keep special education students in their least…

    There are teachers and administrators alike who do not believe that much learning takes place in the special education classroom and that special needs students cannot possibly learn in a regular classroom. To address these concerns, school board administrators have to put in a lot of time and effort to implement a program that the staff and students are comfortable with. Teachers would also need some sort of training to better help them receive the special needs children into their classrooms. Teachers receiving special needs students in their classroom need to be included in the progress of the special needs students. This way, they can see how the student grows overtime in their classroom to get a better understanding of the impact an appropriate inclusion class can have on a special needs student.…

    Parents who held negative attitudes towards inclusion system won't allow their child to be in a regular classroom or regular setting of school because for them special children fits on a special classroom which is expected for them only. Parents were also concerned about aspects of inclusive programming such as not receiving special attention, or fearing that their child would be mistreated, harmed and bullied in a regular classroom. "Education can be a powerful tool to unify the students with disabilities and those without them" (Mowat, 2010). They may expect that their child will be rejected socially and none of any parent will just be contented and let the risk takes place on their child. Parents believe that their special children can learn more in the appropriate place of learning and it's not the regular classroom where normal people take place.…
