OT:Inclusion, aides in FL

[Guest guest]

Do any of you have an aide in your classroom, not one-to-one, but so

that a highly functioning autistic child can remain in the general

education classroom? Benny copies the disabled kids whenever he is

with them. We do not believe that a special ed classroom is the

right placement for him. But he might need extra help. They look at

us in the IEPs like we have three heads whenever we mention such a

possibility, although I have heard of it in other states. What about

FL?

Peace,
