    "Question: What percentage of students with disabilities are educated in regular classrooms? Response: The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), enacted in 1975, mandates that children and youth ages 3-21 with disabilities be provided a free and appropriate public school education. In fall 2013, some 95 percent of 6- to 21-year-old students with disabilities were served in regular schools; 3 percent were served in a separate school for students with disabilities; 1 percent were placed in regular private schools by their parents; and less than 1 percent each were served in one of the following environments: in a separate residential facility, homebound or in a hospital, or in a correctional facility. SOURCE: U.S. Department of Education, National Center for Education Statistics. (2016). Digest of Education Statistics, 2015 (NCES 2016-014), Chapter 2."

  •  
    Disabled children of the U.S have a right to public education without a cost to their family. Every school has to try to meet the needs of every child with disabilities by providing special education. This is a law that says that every child who has a disability has to be taught in a "least restrictive environment". Meaning disabled kids go to the school in their district and also go to school with children who have no disabilities. This law also states that a disabled child should be put into a class that they would have been put into if they were not disabled if possible.

  •  
    Children with special needs or a disability have the right to an education and to go to school. In this article, it goes over that in New Orleans, families with children that have a disability are facing a huge problem. Schools are rejecting these students, which is discrimination.

  •  
    I know in Peoria, AZ a lot of high schools such as Liberty and Sunrise Mountain have special education classrooms for students with disabilities so that they are able to learn at their own pace while still taking in useful information and progressing throughout their years of schooling. I feel as if every school should have programs for these students. Just because they don't learn at the same pace as others, does not mean they should not be able to get an education.
