Mislabeled as Disabled

The Educational Abuse of Struggling Learners and How WE Can Fight It

Kalman R. Hettleman,

About this book

Kalman R. "Buzzy" Hettleman exposes the educational abuse suffered by tens of millions of struggling learners, including many who are "Mislabeled as Disabled" and dumped into special education. The majority of these students are not disabled in any medical or other clinical sense. Rather, in violation of federal law, they fail to receive proper instruction and fall farther behind, suffering stigma and segregation. Hettleman also shows how teachers are undervalued heroes denied the teaching tools to do the job right and, like students, are victimized by the system. This book is a call to everyone to become enraged, and then engaged in the struggle for reform.
