  Case: Children with disabilities
A teacher complained to her principal that children with disabilities were placed in mainstream classrooms due to a shortage of special education teachers, and that their learning needs were not being met; thus, violating the law. Can the teacher be punished for such an expression?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
If the IEP committee determined that the students should be placed in a general setting, then it is the teacher's responsibility to uphold the IEP and provide any accommodations or modifications outlined in the IEP. Rather than being punished for the complaint, the principal should ensure that the teacher is capable of properly implementing the IEP with the support of the students' case managers. If the teacher is providing appropriate support and students are still not being successful, she may need to ask for and IEP meeting to find out how to better serve the child in the general ed classroom or consider a different placement.

Comments: I disagree with this because if the students shouldn't be mainstreamed, it should be looked at immediately.
