Special education law requires that students with IEPs be placed to the maximum extent appropriate with children who are not disabled. This means including students with IEPs into general classrooms, the least restrictive environment, as much as possible. The IEP team, which includes parents, bases placement decisions on the best ways to meet the identified needs of a student. The percentage of time spent in general classrooms will vary according to the needs of individual students, who may require supplemental services to achieve their learning goals.
This graph shows the percentage of students with IEPs whose educational environment was classified into one of four settings for students age 6 to 21:
80% or more of time in a general classroom with their non-disabled peers
40-79% of time in a general classroom
Less than 40% of time in a general classroom
In a separate facility
For pre-school students age 3-5 with IEPs, educational environments are classified in five ways:
Receives the majority of special education services inside an early childhood program
Enrolled in a regular early childhood program but the majority of special education services outside the early childhood program
Enrolled in special education class or facility
At home
In the care of a service provider
