Abstract

While research and policy trends have been moving toward serving a broader range of younger handicapped children in public schools and integrated settings, little information has been available regarding the perceptions of local special education administrators regarding these issues. This study surveyed the views of local special education directors in terms of which populations and ages should be served, in what settings, and for what purposes. The findings indicate that administrators see an emerging role for the public schools, are willing to serve a broader range of young handicapped children, and see the need for far more integrated settings for such children.
