Greetings Tzipporah, I just read your message on children who are
disabled having the right to attend summer school.  I believe that
any child that has a desire or who has parents that want him/her to
attend summer school should have the right to attend.  If a school
has to make special accomadations to accept a disabled child then
so be it.

Very often disabled children are placed on a back burner.  This is
doing a diservice to the child, the family and to the public at
large.  If a disabled child can be taught to take care of
themselves and to be a productive citizen it saves a community
money in the long run. Anton...
