After-school programs are increasingly serving students with disabilities due to the emphasis on inclusion. [VIEW ARTICLE]Comments RSS Feed For This Article: 2
Subject: Students with disabilities / after school I think its a great idea for schools to also open their after school program to disabled children as well . Even though some parents don't know or cant afford the after school program, it is a safer place to keep your kids, instead of keeping them home alone. Comment provided August 31, 2008 at 11:15 am

Subject: Students with disabilities. I agree with the fact that more of these students need to start attending these programs, But you cant blame all the parents some just don't find time to get involved what I suggest that would be great is the school making a web site just for these kids with videos an homework to teach those that cant make it to after school programs.

Subject: students with disabilities 3-3
