19. Moral
Human endeavor had widely
spread in the Philippine education system.
News, articles and journals of handicap
people and unusual age range were able
to pursue and finished their studies. In
spite of the oddness to their classmate,
the less opportune displays qualities of
existence.
Had this been what they call
“Survival of the fittest” - the belief that only
the people with a strong desire to succeed
and the ability to change as conditions
change will achieve success.
Then, the only limit is yourself!

20. Issue
Educators had to accept
that norms are already broken.
That each student has its own
intelligences. Not only on the
children who are diagnose but
to all.
Inclusion should be
provided to everyone not
because the child was diagnose
or labeled but because all have
the right to belong.
