Good Morning. My name is Angela Stevens McNeil and I have the privilege of introducing the next Hall of Honor Inductee, Dr. William Allan Kritsonis.

In 1976, he earned his PhD from the University of Iowa.
Dr. Kritsonis has served and blessed the field of education as a teacher, principal, superintendent of schools, director of student teaching and field experiences, invited guest professor, author, consultant, editor-in-chief, and publisher. He has also earned tenure as a professor at the highest academic rank at two major universities.
In 2005, Dr. Kritsonis was an Invited Visiting Lecturer at the Oxford Round Table at Oriel College in the University of Oxford, Oxford, England. His lecture was entitled the Ways of Knowing through the Realms of Meaning.

Respond to at least two classmates by Day 7. Discuss any of you.docxisbelsejx0m
Respond to at least two classmates' by Day 7. Discuss any of your own personal insights on collaborating effectively to determine the LRE for a student or ask for clarification from another classmate using an example or illustration to assert your own perspective.

According to IDEA, what do the terms Least Restrictive Environment (LRE) and Free and Appropriate Public Education (FAPE) mean?
LRE environment is when students with disabilities that should be educated to the maximum extent appropriate with peers without disabilities. FAPE requires free education that is appropriate for qualified persons with disability in the school district no matter the extent of the person’s disability.
How does inclusion fit into the big picture of LRE?
Inclusion means all individuals regardless of ability should be able to participate in the same environment with appropriate support, no one is excluded.
Discuss the legal ramifications of the LRE provision as mandated by IDEA, the relative and dynamic properties of LRE, and the collaborative dimension of implementing LRE for students in special education.
”The
case law increasingly uses the LRE standard to require school districts to exhaust attempts to serve students with disabilities in the general education classroom (Keuhne, 1998).
The relative and dynamic properties of LRE makes sure students are placed appropriately and teachers keep in mind that placements for students can change according to the system evaluations. The collaborative dimension of implementing LRE for students in special education makes sure a team of members come together to discuss what is best for the student to successfully learn.
In addition, discuss any personal experiences you may have had as part of an IEP team for a student where LRE was determined, or any insights you might have on ensuring LRE and FAPE for all student. I have not attended an IEP meeting but know that team comes together to discuss goals and strategies to ensure the child is successful in a regular classroom setting.
Elizabeth Holguin there name
LRE is a requirement by the federal law that states that all students with disabilities should receive education to the extent that is most appropriate for them. LRE also requires that students with disabilities receive education in a general classroom, with nondisabled peers and they are not to be removed from regular classes; even when supplemental services and aids are used, unless they cannot achieve education in regular classes satisfactorily (Keuhne, 1998)). FAPE means that children with disabilities will receive the appropriate education under the public school system, with no cost to the parent. IDEA does not define inclusion because it requires school districts to make sure there is an individualized approach to determining the less restrictive environment for students with disabilities. In such as case, inclusion is not implemented as a one-size-fits-all approac.
Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

and Beyond…

2. The most important guiding principle of the IDEA is that
each child has the right to the Least Restrictive
Environment (LRE), which means that s/he will be
educated with peers in the general education setting “to
the maximum extent that is appropriate.”
This means that students will only be sent to special
classes or separate programs when the supports and
services cannot provide them with an appropriate
education.
The tool that schools use to formally provide supports
and services to students is called the IEP, or the
Individualized Educational Program.
The foundation law for Special Education is called IDEA, the
Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (1975).
3. What is an IEP?
An IEP is a customized education plan. It considers the student’s current level of
functioning, measures of performance and ability, and the student’s needs for the future.
The IEP prescribes the supports (i.e. paraprofessional in class), modifications (i.e.
extended time on tests) and services (i.e. speech therapy, special transportation) that the
student needs. Schools are required by law to adhere to the IEP. It is reviewed and
updated at least once each year.
How does a student qualify for an IEP?
Students must have a disability that is listed in the IDEA legislation.
The student’s disability must affect the child’s ability to learn in the regular education
classroom.
Other efforts to support the student have not helped the child make the necessary gains.
4. What is the process to get my child an IEP?
Someone decides to pursue special education supports. That person can be a
parent, a teacher, a counselor, an administrator.
The school administers several tests to the child.
A committee convenes to discuss the findings of the tests as well as any
comments that teachers, staff and parents share.
The committee consists of: parents, a classroom teacher, a special
education teacher, a school psychologist, an administrator, and the child,
when mature.
An IEP document is drafted that outlines all supports for the child. Parents
must sign the IEP, but are not required to do so if there is a dispute regarding
services/supports.
5. What happens if my child is denied an IEP?
The law that governs Special Education has very specific criteria and school districts often prefer not
to place a child in Special Education. If you are denied an IEP, you can still ask that your child be
reviewed for a 504 plan.
To be eligible under Section 504, a student must:
have a physical or mental impairment (permanent or
temporary) that substantially limits one or more major
life activities;
have a record of such an impairment; or
be regarded as having such an impairment.
Section 504 regulations do not provide an exhaustive list
of specific diseases or conditions that constitute physical
or mental impairments.
6. What kinds of accommodations could a 504 provide?
Environmental strategies, such as special seating or sensory break
Organizational strategies, such as graphic organizers or checking the student’s planner
Behavioral strategies, such as recording and reporting of student’s behavior
Presentation strategies, such as recorded lessons, study guides or A/V equipment
Modified assignments
Modified assessments
