Special Ed Shouldn't Be Separate
Briefly

Isolating children like Izzy from their peers disregards their fundamental need for social interaction and learning that only comes from being part of a community.
The absence of inclusive educational options means that children with disabilities risk missing out on vital developmental experiences that occur in peer environments.
Private schools' lack of obligation to accommodate special needs children often leaves families like mine without suitable educational choices, emphasizing the need for systemic change.
Izzy deserves the same opportunities as her peers; her disabilities should not limit her access to social engagement and educational experiences essential for growth.
