A school nurse is assessing a new student who has mild cognitive disabilities who recently relocated from another state. The child's parent is asking the school nurse questions regarding how their child will best be supported at the new school. Which of the following statements made by the nurse is most appropriate?

A. "Schools are no longer required to offer special education classrooms; they are being phased out to save money for the school district.": Public schools are legally required under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) to provide appropriate education, including special education services, so this statement is inaccurate and misleading. B. "Studies show that children who have mild cognitive disabilities experience more enhanced development in an inclusive classroom.": Inclusive classrooms allow children with mild cognitive disabilities to engage academically and socially alongside neurotypical peers, supporting skill development and promoting greater educational outcomes. C. "Including children who have mild cognitive disabilities in a classroom with that has neurotypical children will encourage socialization with your child.": While socialization can be a benefit, the focus is broader than socialization alone; inclusive settings also improve academic engagement and overall development. D. "School administration will observe your child for one year before making a placement decision.": Placement decisions for students with disabilities are made based on individualized education program (IEP) assessments, not arbitrary observation periods, making this statement inaccurate.
