This report reviews Federal legal requirements for including students with disabilities in general education classrooms, describes the continuing obstacles to inclusion, and provides guidance for challenging the placement of students with disabilities outside of the general education classroom. Barriers to full inclusion are identified, followed by a discussion of the need for advocates to present the courts with cases that challenge systemic state and local policies and practices that impede inclusion. Key questions for challenging exclusion and the denial of full inclusion of students with disabilities are also listed. A separate section provides the legal basis for inclusion by highlighting legal decisions that recognize the rights of students with disabilities to be educated with children without disabilities. Legal decisions affecting presumption and burden of proof, individualized determination, the right to full educational opportunity, and the duty to provide a continuum of placements are reviewed. Findings in the court case of Oberti v. Board of Education of Clementon, New Jersey, are also presented. A list of objectives and proposed activities designed to achieve full inclusion is provided, along with a list of strategies or remedies to address the key problems of placements that are less than full inclusion.
