| Inclusive education means that all students, regardless of
their cognitive and physical strengths or weaknesses are a part of the
school community.
The Beaver County BCCTC welcomes students with disabilities.
Federal law, the amendments stated in IDEA (Individuals with Disabilities
Education Act) make it clear that all schools have the duty to educate
children in general classroom or the least restrictive environment with
the non-disabled peers.
IDEA requires that children with disabilities be educated in regular
education classrooms unless "the nature and severity of the disability
is such that education in regular classes with the use of supplementary
aides and services cannot be achieved satisfactorily".
To that end, the Beaver County BCCTC is committed to providing services
for special education students in the regular education environment as well
as pull-outs services as needed.
