EXCEPTIONAL CHILDREN'S WEEK

What is Exceptional Children’s Week?
CEC initiated
Exceptional Children’s Week (ECW) as a means to educate the public about
children with disabilities and garner support for them and special
education. Since its inception, many CEC units have taken advantage of
ECW to awaken an understanding of the needs and capabilities of
exceptional children and the programs that support them in their
communities and states or provinces. ECW results in far-reaching
benefits to students with exceptionalities. In addition to increased
public awareness, ECW gives community members an opportunity to become
directly involved in the advancement of individuals with disabilities.
Professionals, parents, students, politicians, and the general public
find themselves working together to enhance understanding and acceptance
of individuals with exceptionalities.
Today, more than ever,
America needs public support for special education and children and
youth with exceptionalities. Through legislation and new developments,
special education has made great strides and educators have the tools
they need to teach these students effectively. As a result, the door is
open for students with exceptionalities to achieve academic and
life-long success. We must not let these efforts falter through lack of
support or resources.
By investing in the
education of students with disabilities, they learn the skills they need
to become independent, self-sufficient citizens—and often give back to
their country not only their skills as employees but as integral parts
of their communities.
ECW provides a golden
opportunity to spread the word about special education, our successes,
and the accomplishments of children with exceptionalities.
