Starting kindergarten doesn't automatically mean SELF-CONTAINED!
Karen raises an important concern about children transitioning from Early Childhood Special Education (ECSE) into kindergarten.
A child's disability or previous placement should NOT automatically determine their next classroom.
Under IDEA's Least Restrictive Environment (LRE) requirements, schools must consider whether the student can be educated satisfactorily in general education with appropriate supports.
Parents, ask what supports were considered before a more restrictive placement was recommended!
