15-1-1

Anyone work at a school that doesn’t offer a 15-1-1 and will NOT bus any kids out to a 15-1-1?

School population is roughly 7,000 and I’ve never worked in a district, where not one child needed this.

We have 12-1-1 and smaller, but we are letting kids with Down syndrome (I know - it’s a spectrum) go off to middle school with very little help. I don’t think they can access the curriculum reasonably.

What do I do to have my administration support me? It’s statistically impossible that you could have that type of student body population and not one student would need that placement for LRE.

Someone told me that LRE is actually the LEE, so the least restrictive environment is actually the least expensive environment. I’ve been a teacher for six years. Gen ed teacher looking for help!

LRE

Is it just me or has the concept of LRE become too closely equated with inclusion, even though IDEA requires an individualized determination? I think a lot of people forget this and assume the LRE is the typical classroom. I’m just wondering if anyone else has picked up on this recently. The key point is LRE the INDIVIDUALIZED, not gen ed! smh
