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.

Extractions: Counseling Services Services Special Needs General information for Special Needs Services: All students compete for admission to BYU-Hawaii based on the same criteria. There are no exceptions or changing of criteria for students with disabilities. Although students who feel they have special circumstances that the Admissions Committee should consider may include a letter with their application explaining their situation, applicants are not required to disclose their special needs or disabilities during the application process. The Admissions Office is located in the Administration Building (808) 293-3738 Brigham Young University Hawaii is committed to compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. The university makes every effort to accommodate individuals with disabilities within the scope of existing laws. If a student needs to discontinue school during the semester, the individual should confer with his/her SNS counselor. The student should also work with the Discontinuance Office, (808) 293-3558, in the Student Development Center. It would be wise for students who discontinue during fall or winter semester also to speak to an admissions advisor concerning his/her chances of being re-accepted to BYU-H in the future.
