Parents who have children that are in special ed. Have to choose between a diploma track or a non diploma track. These children my learn different than others but,they are still learning. They will get a certificate but its not a diploma. I understand why they are doing it. What I think is why not give these kids a high school diploma and put a stamp up in the corner to show they did receive special ed. These kids are still working just as hard as any other child so,why make them feel any different.Isn't it hard enough for them already?
My son has worked so hard just to keep up with his peers. A certificate feels like a slap in the face after all those years of effort. They deserve the same diploma everyone else gets.

Total nonsense. They did the work so give them the paper. Why punish them for needing extra help???
