You must consider before preparing brochure…
1. Decide if your ‘school’ will be for children with mild or moderate disabilities, or chronic illnesses. Will you include children who are gifted? You need to decide (through research) what mild and moderate disabilities encompass—which disabilities fall into each category.
2. Decide if you will include children with chronic illnesses; for example, a child with a feeding G-tube.
3. Will you include a child who is emotionally disturbed?
Note: For every child with a disability—that equals 2 to 3 typical developing children in a classroom.
