Educational laws and policies such as the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, free and appropriate public education, and least restrictive environment regulate inclusion in the general education classroom. The problem addressed in the study was the high demands placed on elementary teachers with the increase in students with emotional behavioral disorders mainstreamed into the general education classroom and its association with teacher burnout and turnover rates due to high expectations for meeting their educational, emotional, and social needs. The purpose of this qualitative instrumental case study was to explore general education teachers' experiences and perspectives of the inclusive learning environment for students with emotional behavioral disorders. Constructivism and experiential learning provided the theoretical framework. Seven general education teachers from a public elementary school participated in the study through semi-structured interviews via Zoom. Interviews were transcribed and thematic analysis employed to identify codes, categories, themes, and subthemes. Participants described their lived experiences as including a realization of their lack of collegiate preparedness for real-life inclusive environment management, daily management of expected and unexpected behaviors, and the need for additional strategies and human resources. Recommendations for practice include teacher education programs integrating additional content and practice with inclusion management and increased professional development for teachers. Recommendations for future research include expanding the sampling frame to increase generalizability of the findings and investigate evidence-based avenues for improving teacher experiences with inclusion.
