This is important to realize that every student may not thrive and be as successful as they can be in a regular classroom setting. Janie Ulmer is a member of the Edmentum Educator Network. In a talk about her first year of teaching, she focused more on the kids who were compliant, because she did not know what to do with the others. Janie Ulmer started a program in Indiana were all students who enroll meet with a licensed social worker to identify areas of concern before an academic plan is created. She also stated the importance of Alternative schools, not only for students, but for educators too by saying "When identifying and meeting the needs of students, students come first, then we, as educators, are able to move noncompliant students out of the hallways and back into the classroom where the learning occurs"(Ulmer, 2020).
