| Through our work with community-based organizations, such as the Suffolk County BSCD's Inclusion Task Force, we promote the understanding that all children benefit from inclusionary settings. It helps all children, special needs children as well as those without special needs, to learn from an early age to be accepting and respectful of each other...which is why LIHS classrooms are inclusionary. We would like to invite you to join us in our efforts to continue to provide positive experiences for all children, including children with special needs. |
