The article discusses on the social acceptability of unappreciated students in special classes. The research conducted employs the modified Ohio Social Acceptance Scale by M. Chennault. The study presents a figure of the comparison of the mean social acceptance scores of the experimental and control groups. It indicates that the acceptance of students in special classes can be heightened, but the gains will fall when the treatment stops. Replication of the treatment will be hard without an aide.
