In general, it sucked. Not for me but for other people. My mom works with special needs kids, and in our elementary school, the SN program didn't work so well. The paras (the people who work with special needs kids) weren't allowed to touch the kids, and they were allowed to run on the ceiling and do whatever they wanted (a kid in my 5th grade class threw chairs, and I was in the hospital for 8 weeks with a very painful spine injury, and a cracked rib). Our school district wouldn't hire any more paras, even though the para to kid ratio was about 1 to 10 by the time I got out of that mess. But I'm home schooled now, and I did 6th grade in one semester, 7th grade the second semester, and 8th grade the next year. I can't do that in high school, though. But I'm graduating before my best friend now:) But, yeah. It's pretty bad. At least for our school district.
