As a parent of a child with a disability I did not find this school inclusive at all. My child came from her previous school where she was part of a general education classroom with support. I was told that this was not possible at William C Jack elementary and the only placement that they could provide was Cross-categorical Autism classroom. I had an IEP meeting and asked if I could observe the classroom to make sure it was the right placement and was denied at the IEP meeting. I also felt that the team felt that they were gonna make decisions on my child’s placement and my input didn’t matter. Future more they didn’t provide services or honor the previous IEP. My child came home and complained constantly about being hit and kicked by another student while she was in the Autism classroom. The curriculum they provided in the classroom left me feeling disgusted and nauseous.I ultimately removed my child from the school.
