What would it be like? Mine would be fun Technology a sensory room breaks my when needed gently making your level higher and higher through School work and frequent progress assessments. We would figure out the best way that a particular student learns and teach them in that way for each individual student. I would also have a class teaching about disabilities and tolerance. And life skill classes even for regular ed kids like a home ec. Recess or free period would be back for everyone sort of like study hall or resorse. Will be from 9 o'clock to 4 o'clock or 430 for earlier school for kids were early birds 730 to 230 like normally. But there are some kids are just can't make it on time and whence should accommodate them there would be school where there will be an optional year-round school but not mandatory. There will be a whole bunch of Afterschool activities including swimming and Special Olympics. All buildings would be be ADA accessible. Therapy therapy available all types of Before durring school and/or after school or on the weekends/summer.

I would design a program where they is no special ed. I don't believe people with learning differences should be taught in a dumbed-down classroom. It's all about presentation.

Me too. Of course people who needed them would have IEPs that would allow them to get the accommodations and teaching style they need. But special ed just separates people and creates a stigma.

I apologize and that is shorting of the word special education for students like accommodations and stuff I didn't mean to offend any one. I think I'll correct this in a new post.
