Not sure what they are talking about either. From my experience in a small-town school, students with learning disabilities were never part of the normal classroom. Once you got into high school, there was a higher level, and a lower level that students could choose depending on their ability to learn.
This was in 2004 about.
Class size was never a problem. Well except when the teachers decided they wanted to strike in the middle of the year leaving us with 2 months of vacation.
