LA’s special ed challenge: Integrating students at younger ages without putting special education centers at risk

Posted by Carl Petersen 47sc on January 17, 2017

"'Any time a kid can be mainstreamed, they should, but it’s just not feasible for all kids,' said Petersen, who pointed out that he is running for school board in part to bring special ed issues to the forefront.

Petersen is a supporter of the special education centers and would like to see general education students brought into the special education centers, to integrate the students, rather than forcing some of the students with more severe cases into general education classrooms that weren’t designed for those students’ needs.

Petersen also supports establishing magnet schools on the campuses of special education centers for students who are interested in careers in special ed."
