What is a possible placement change?. Ms. Gonzales frequently communicates with
Stephen’s parents and has mentioned a
possible placement change to them. Stephen’s parents do not want him to be pulled out
of the inclusion classroom even though other
students are
being hurt.
Currently, there are
five other students
in the inclusion classroom who receive special education services
for
behavior issues. Stephen’s behaviors are the most severe. Ms. Gonzales does not feel
she can
effectively meet Stephen’s needs
with regards to
his behaviors and keep the other
students from being
hurt.
Mr. Kuchar agrees that Stephen needs
to be placed in
a different classroom to
better
fit
his needs; however, he has realized
that there is inconsistent data collected thus far to
support this
need.
