Oregon Recruitment and Retention Project Background Information/Recruitment Emphasis Area The state of Oregon has experienced tremendous growth in the past five years and the need for special education and related services personnel is critical. Most recently, an increase in the number of students with disabilities from Spanish speaking families has increased in rural and urban areas of the state. Recruitment efforts have increased also, as all of the special education degree-granting institutions of higher education have joined as partners in Oregon's Recruitment and Retention Project. Oregon is also home to a unique collaborative effort between the State Department of Special Education and the Teaching Research Division of Western Oregon University (WOU)- The Special Education Recruitment Retention Project (see more details below)- supported through the state legislature and housed at WOU.

She may look and act different. How will her presence affect your child's education? Part Two of a Two-Part Series. by Dianne Hales Something major is happening in American education: Children with disabilities are no longer out of sight. Over the past five years increasing numbers of students with physical and emotional disabilities have been brought out of separate schools and special-education classes and into mainstream classrooms. The reason? New federal laws that have embraced the policy of inclusion. This controversial educational approach assumes that all children, regardless of physical, emotional, or academic ability, can and should learn together in the same classroom. Inclusionary schools assign students a grade based solely on their chronological age; any child who also requires the services of special-education teachers can then get most of those services in the classroom. The first part of this series, "A Place for Amber" looked at the effects of inclusion on children with disabilities, and found that many educators and parents give it high marks. But there is another side to the equation: inclusion's effect on children who are not disabled. In this second and concluding part of Moving Into the Mainstream, we look at what is known about students who share classrooms with youngsters with special needs.

77. JOURNAL OF STAFF DEVELOPMENT - Summer 1996 to discontinue the segregation of disabled students from Eugene, OR University ofOregon, schools Project. Beyond special education Toward a system for all http://www.nsdc.org/library/jsd/jsdmalar.html

Using Staff Development to Create Inclusive Schools by Lynn Malarz Journal of Staff Development , Summer 1996 (Vol. 17, No. 3) To create inclusive schools, all staff members will have to change the way they view the world of education, including changing paradigms of teaching and learning, teacher support, and staff development practices. "When you see the social aspects at this level, I can't imagine going back to self-contained classes." Janet Healey, Principal School districts are changing their views about educating children with disabilities. Instead of isolated classes, schools are moving toward more inclusive classes for all children. This movement toward "inclusive" classrooms has stirred much debate and polarization in special education. Some parents think that "inclusion is the best thing that has happened for my child"; others call it "an inadequate answer" to solving problems in education. Further, some educators, although sympathetic to many of the problems that disabled students face, are not embracing inclusion as the answer. To adequately address the issues surrounding the inclusive schools movement, let's consider the meaning of inclusion, features of successful inclusive schools, and the professional development that is required to create these schools.

Your browser does not support script Grant Winners 1999 Other award recipients: Grant Winners 2001 Grant Winners 2000 Grants Awarded in 1999 . Nine awards went to elementary or middle schools, two to high schools, a Master Gardener project; two municipal gardens (a public library and an historic house); a community college; a research/teaching garden; a community garden project; and two social service agency gardens. In reviewing the criteria, the committee looked for interest in perennials, of course, but also: a clear, well-defined, reasonable proposal, with specific plant lists and well-researched budgets; potential for good public access and garden education (not merely "nice landscaping"); innovative ideas and solutions to problems; geographic distribution; indications that the applicant had sought support elsewhere, if possible. Beavercreek Elementary School/Transition Room Awarded: Project: Expanding/improving the mixed border gardens created by special-needs students at Beavercreek School. Money to be used for plants, soaker hoses and tools. The garden is an effective curriculum/therapeutic tool in this program; the TR students attend the program in the summer, when the garden serves an even more important role. As a teacher wrote, developing the gardens is a terrific way "to include special-needs children in the mainstream and develop their sense of importance, expertise, and ability to contribute positively; to connect classroom lessons to garden planning, maintenance, and enjoyment; and to present something beautiful to the community at large...."
