Extractions: Ever since Ronald Cloud placed his two children in public school, he has worked to raise expectations for what they could accomplish. He believed his autistic children could aim for grade-level achievement in math and reading, especially his 10-year-old son, who gradually is taking regular classes. School officials, however, cautioned him to be "realistic," he said. By federal law, schools must offer students with disabilities a chance for an "appropriate" education. For years, parents like Cloud have complained they have had to push constantly to get the help their children need. Now, however, schools must account for how well they educate disabled students.

A parent often has to deal with past emotional and physical atrocities, interruptions in parent-child bonding cycles, losses felt by the adopted child, and the inappropriate behaviors of unattached children.

Mercy Corps - Promoting Inclusive Education Through Media an important part of Mercy Corps georgia s commitment to school, classroom or activitywith disabled children to know that people with special needs really need http://www.mercycorps.org/items/1347/
Extractions: April 28, 2003 In Georgia Mercy Corps, with assistance from USAID, has supported over 30 projects through local NGOs that address issues related to people with disabilities. Many of these local NGOs have pioneered the promotion of integrating people with disabilities in education and other spheres of their communities. Because of the negative perception of people with disabilities in Georgia, public awareness raising through the media has been an important part of Mercy Corps Georgia's commitment to working with disabled adults and children. These activities help to promote positive images of disabled children and adults - and overcome negative stereotypes from the past. They also result in legitimization of NGOs as true supporters of positive social change, resulting in critical community support.

Extractions: Click Here to Sign an Online Petition We have been successful in getting the words, "school nursing services" inserted into the current draft of the IDEA reauthorization; HOWEVER, these words could be removed if committee members do not support this addition. It is URGENT that members of the Senate Committee are contacted immediately at their state offices. School nurses need to let their Senators know that they are voting residents of the state and that they want the Senator to support the inclusion of "school nursing services" within Related Services of IDEA. NASN has been asking for this inclusion for a number of years. Now that it is in the draft, it is up to all of us to keep it there!! Issue IDEA reauthorization legislation will soon be introduced in both the United States House of Representatives and Senate. It is important for school nurses to act now to assure that the bill that is introduced includes "school nursing services" under Related Services. The Senate version of IDEA will be introduced most probably by Senators Kennedy (MA) and Gregg (NH) contains, as NASN had requested, "school nurse services" in the legislative language of the Related Services Personnel Section.

Extractions: ISSUE: The increase in racial, ethnic, and cultural diversity in American schools is reflected in many early childhood classrooms. These classrooms also are receiving increased numbers of children with disabilities or developmental delays. The diverse composition of early childhood classrooms brings many challenges as well as many opportunities to educators. With a knowledge of effective practices, and with the support of administrators, colleagues, families, and the local and global community, teachers can create classrooms that are responsive to the diverse needs of all children. Overview Goals Action Options Pitfalls ... References OVERVIEW: By the year 2000, more than 30 percent of the U.S. population will have a racial- or ethnic-minority background (Office of Ethnic Minority Affairs, 1995). If the children of those families were evenly distributed across the nation's classrooms, a hypothetical class of 30 children would have 10 students from racial- or ethnic-minority groups; of these 10, six children would belong to families for whom English is not the home language, and two to four children would have limited English proficiency (National Center for Research on Cultural Diversity and Second Language Learning, n.d.). Although the United States traditionally has been a culturally and linguistically diverse nation, today's schools have an increased awareness of the need to acknowledge and address issues of diversity.
