Kenston teacher's 'reverse inclusion' club brings typical students into special needs classes


to be honest i'm not sure how I feel about this idea - i love the outcome, for sure, but it almost seems like the kids with disabilities are the guinea pigs for the "typical" kids. (is typical going to become the new "normal"?)...



BAINBRIDGE - A Kenston High School teacher has designed a popular school club and class that has turned out to be anything but typical.

It began last school year when special education teacher Amanda Englehart began the Creating Exceptional Character club, a local chapter of the Council for Exceptional Children, a national organization devoted to special education. The club brought typical students into classrooms after school to work with students with special needs.
