This book provides a comprehensive treatment of special programs in regular schools. The entire treatment is predicated on a site-based, collaborative model that encourages a multi-disciplined approach, utilizing many of the special programs as parts of a more unified approach to meeting the needs of children and their families.

Seventeen programs, such as activities, bilingual education, child care, fine arts, physical education, etc., are covered, reviewing the history of the development or evolution of each. This includes landmark legislation, court cases, and other events that facilitated the establishment of the program in regular schools. The current status and description of each program are detailed, along with the national standards and goals. Also, contemporary issues that are associated with each program are discussed. A glossary of terms unique to each special program is provided to aid the uninitiated.
