Your situation really resonates with me. I have a 7 year old that just finished Kindergarten in Keller ISD. At the beginning of the year, I was optimistic and happy but by the end of the year, I was bitter and jaded. It happens so fast! We had 3 pre-ARD meetings and 2 ARD meetings recently, and they were not pretty. Embracing inclusion is just not happening in many schools these days. Sadly. It takes guts and willingness to fight to start making a change. Lots of parents throw in the towel and just give in because it is easy to just peace out and not fight. I get it. I've been tempted as well! But lets stick to our guns and fight for what is right for EVERY kid! In the end, our fight will be worth it and hopefully there will be reciprocal benefit for others that follow in our kiddos paths! Thanks for letting us be a part of your journey. Kendall is adorable! <br />Lisa Sharphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12520605553151329763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3571346434199766550.post-18988811652933812432013-06-11T16:17:06.667-07:002013-06-11T16:17:06.667-07:00This is a tough one and often what inclusion is is...This is a tough one and often what inclusion is isn't what it should be. Confusing to say the least. I was a special education teacher who fought for inclusion to then see my students' forgotten by their general ed teacher on things. Now I am a parent to an amazing little girl who has quadriplegic cerebral palsy. Honestly, I prefer her to be protected in a special needs room where her teacher gets the unique and bright little girl she is. I don't want her inclusioned to where she is just put in the back of a classroom and the kids think she is cute like a class pet. I want her to learn to the best she can and for us what has worked best is for her to be in a self contained room and then more social with a general ed classroom. Honestly, she is happier when she is in the self contained room where people can understand her style of communicating and can take the time to wait. I know each family has a dream of how it should be, but reality is someday my daughter will require a group home etc... as by the looks of things she will continue to need total care, so we are trying to face each step of helping her to be the happiest and best she can be in an environment that is healthy and safe for her. I know our reality isn't necessarily yours due to differences in school districts, but what you just described happens to inclusioned kids more than you would think - you just caught them. Hugs to you as you fight for what you believe is best for Kendall!dannettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03164159494188315623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3571346434199766550.post-15120465240925036802013-06-09T12:26:44.367-07:002013-06-09T12:26:44.367-07:00Jocie, I can't tell you how much this saddens ...Jocie, I can't tell you how much this saddens me. As one of the general classroom teachers that was involved with inclusion under a principal with a vision and the guts to do the right thing, I am appalled. Yes, we constantly fought with some parents of " regular" kids and a few blankety, blank teachers, as they were too ignorant to see the blessings and benefits we all gleamed from each other. I am just stunned and without words.

We had to pull him due to continuing illness but even with pulling him out they still included him in events. His little pictures still hangs up, his name is on the path to the class, and they included his name in their ceremony. I am very ashamed of her school. Kendall deserves more!
