Inclusive education for ALL students means we are ALL IN.
The New Jersey Coalition for Inclusive Education is on the road across America working with schools to create bright futures for students with disabilities—through inclusive education.
We partner with schools to make inclusive education happen—authentically.
Inclusive education is the grounds for creating an equitable, socially just democratic society. Our organization works with schools to create learning communities where all students with and without disabilities are supported and feel like they belong.
Here’s where the U.S. stands in inclusive education:
6,315,228+
students
More than 6.3 million students ages 6 to 21 are served under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act in the United States (IDEA), Part B.
64%
included
Over 64% of students ages 6 to 21 who are served under IDEA, Part B, spend 80% or more of the day in general education classrooms, but 36% are still not fully included.
2.7%
placed out of district
More than 170,000 students ages 6 to 21 served under IDEA, Part B, do not attend their neighborhood schools in the United States. Instead, they are sent out of their districts to separate schools for students with disabilities.
