u mean things in the class? well i have back probs due to spina bifida so hard chairs arent good, i especially dont like the ones where the chair is attached to the tiny desk, i request a soft chair and a small table.

If you mean in regard to the “least restrictive environment” part of the law, the most restrictive environment is the smallest self-contained class size with the smallest child adult ratio in your state. New York has classes as small as 6:1:1. That means 6 kids with one teacher and one adult. Some of the kids could also have 1:1 aides.

inadequate or lack of modifcations for people with various disabilities requiring use of wheelchair, visual aides(flashing fire alarms for the deaf), too many obstacles for a visually impaired person.

lack of space in classroom to adjust room so people with various disabilities can navigate.

lack of people understanding the requirements that must be met to provide w/disabilites or other health issues equal opportunities.

not providing the student with modified materials or use of two textbooks each class so that they can keep one at home and one at school so that they dont have to carry books they are physically unable to home

lack of training from school nurse to take care of students health issues that may arise during school( i remember being catheterized in front of the whole district of school nurses before i entered kindergarten because no one had seen a proper cathing procedure before)

TEACHERS NOT FOLLOWING IEP(individualized education program) my third grade teachers went to the principal and said they refused to teach me according to the IEP and that I belonged in a level 4 school which basically I am far more capable then those children in all capacities including learning. the principal told them if they didnt they were fired.he also did that to my art teacher when i was in second grade. he gave her an ultimatum and told her if she wasnt going to follow my IEP or come up with a plan of her own how she planned to help me in class. he would fire her so she quit and last i heard she was working in an art supply store then lost that job and was working in a used book store.

best thing that happened to me was catholic school they did not allow me to be excluded like in public school. that is until i went to the high school i graduated from.

all in all i had a pretty good childhood school experience despite the few people who didnt understand.
