Tim Villegas shares his experiences with inclusive education and the obstacles he faced while attempting to implement it in non-inclusive school systems. He shares the story of Damian, a student with multiple disabilities who was included with the assistance of a paraprofessional. However, Tim realizes that this approach was not true inclusion and failed to address the systemic issues that resulted in segregation in the first place. Tim has a conversation with a former colleague about the impact one teacher can have on changing a system from within. He also discusses the progress and challenges faced by Sevi, Harper, and Natalia, three students with disabilities whose families have been advocating for inclusive education. Finally, Tim concludes with some hopeful discussions with future educators and the real question everyone should be asking themselves.
This is part five of a five-part series about families and school districts fully committed to inclusive practices for all learners.

What if there were truly inclusive schools out there where families didn't have to fight for their children with extensive support needs to be included?
The good news is that there are. But the not-so-great news is that in order to access them, it depends on where you live
This Fall, get ready for the stories of families and school districts fully committed to inclusive schools for each and every learner.
