I think that allowing students with learning disabilities in classrooms can have benefits and disadvantages. Classroom settings can push children to do better with school work. However, classrooms can create distractions for students especially with learning disorders, such as ADHD. These distractions can prevent them from learning. This can cause these children to fall behind other students and cause frustrations which can make them fall even further behind. Trying to teach students at different academic levels can make teachers' jobs very difficult. I think that schools can make compromises to meet the needs of students with learning disabilities. These students can have specialized lessons in areas that they struggle. For example, a student with dyslexia is placed in a specialized reading group, then for math returns to the classroom with the rest of the students. This would allow the students to get the most out of their education as possible.
