I think that it is a perhaps not so delicate way of trying to introduce families to the idea that this is not the same.
Again, IDEA does not apply.
I'm not sure how friendly it seems to families, but I don't want them to take that as any sort of indicator that this is a school that's not friendly to students with disabilities.
I mean, in fairness to us,
Those misunderstandings come to us in the form of upset parents and students at times.
