Which provision ensures students with disabilities are educated in the least restrictive environment?

  1. Individualized assessments

  2. Least Restrictive Environment (LRE)

  3. Procedural rights for parents

  4. Identification of all children

The correct answer is: Least Restrictive Environment (LRE)

The correct answer is the least restrictive environment (LRE) provision, which is fundamental in ensuring that students with disabilities are educated alongside their non-disabled peers to the maximum extent appropriate. The concept of LRE is embedded in the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) and emphasizes the importance of including students with disabilities in general education settings whenever possible, rather than isolating them in special education programs. This provision promotes inclusivity and acknowledges that a supportive educational environment can significantly enhance learning for students with disabilities. It allows for necessary accommodations and modifications to be made to ensure these students receive a quality education while remaining integrated with their classmates. This approach not only helps foster social interactions and relationships but also encourages higher academic expectations.
