Abstract

This survey was designed to examine the role of inclusion in a secondary school setting in one school district. The survey attempted to measure the attitudes, and opinions of general education school teachers, special education school teachers, administrators, and the parents of a student with a disability. The survey determined that most opinions agreed that students with disabilities deserved to be included in classes and extracurricular activities but what that would look like was different in all groups. Opinions even varied when looking at what the exact definition of inclusion was. Results from the survey showed opinions that teachers and administrators have towards the school district and how inclusive it is overall. Inclusion is an important aspect of education as everyone deserves the right to a quality education. How to accomplish this goal for all students remains a lingering question that as of today has no definitive answer.
