TYPES OF PROGRAMS
Inclusion- The state of Ohio and the Federal Government encourage the participation of students with disabilities in classes with non disabled peers to the fullest extent possible. This is referred to as the Least Restrictive Environment (LRE). Inclusion is the term used to describe when a student receives special education and/or related services in the regular education classroom. The student may have some modifications and/or accommodations, but would be required to meet the expectations of the regular education curriculum to a significant degree.
Pull Out- This term refers to when services are provided outside of the regular education environment. For example a student may be pulled out of a typical language arts class to receive speech services.
Part-Time Resource Room With Mainstreaming - This refers to a student who receives the majority of academic instruction in the resource room but will receive some of their academic instruction in the regular education environment. Often the requirements for the regular education class room in this situation is altered to a significant degree.
Full-Time Resource Room - This refers to programs for students with disabilities in which the special education student participates in the special education classroom environment for the majority of his or her day. It may or may not include modified art, music and PE and also support for students during lunch and recess.
