Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
In 1976, Public Law 99-142 was enacted, giving all students, including those who are severely handicapped, the right to public education in the least restrictive environment possible, regardless of mental or physical disabilities. The Education for All Handicapped Children Act of 1973 and the subsequent Individuals with Disabilities Education Act of 1990 enhanced the opportunities for children previously served in acute care and long-term care settings to have access to public education.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: E
Medications used to treat ADHD are the most commonly administered. Medications commonly given in schools include analgesics and antipyretics, antacids, antitussives, anticonvulsants, antiemetics and antidiarrheals, antifungals, antihistamines, and antibiotics.
