97. Nile said "mainstreaming is a bad idea"
PERIOD. I'm sorry, but I have a REAL problem when a very small minority of extreme cases are used as justification to undermine the rights of all students with special needs.

Also, I am curious as to why the student you referenced is given homework assignments which are obviously beyond his abilities if there is a special education teacher in the classroom. Modifications of the curriculum should be part of the child's IEP, and if he is being given homework assignments that he can't do, it sounds like something fell between the cracks.
