Abstract
A survey of resource teachers identified priority problems and concerns in the following order: policy and procedures, attitude, time, materials, and instructional skills. Type of class taught (LD or EMH), teaching level, teaching experience, and teaching background influenced how teachers perceived certain problems. These professionals overwhelmingly pointed to the school district as the most likely agency to help them solve the noted problems. Implications for policy examination, resource allocation, and inservice training are discussed.Keywords
