I see nothing in Marc's post that indicates that he "demanded" anything!
Also, should the regular ed teachers have to beg the special ed teachers
for assistance? If the student has an IEP that says that the student
needs assistance, the special ed teacher is responsible to see that the
assistance is rendered.
