The school board ruling mandating that physically handicapped students be placed in regular classroom settings whenever possible also assured all children who have a reading problem of special aid.
(A) be placed in regular classroom settings whenever possible also assured all children who have a reading problem
(B) should be placed in regular classroom settings whenever possible also assures all children that have a reading problem
(C) are placed in regular classroom settings whenever possible also assures those children who are having reading problems
(D) be placed in regular classroom settings whenever possible also assured children with reading problems
(E) should be placed in regular classroom settings whenever possible also has assured all those children with a reading problem
(A) be placed in regular classroom settings whenever possible also assured all children who have a reading problem
(B) should be placed in regular classroom settings whenever possible also assures all children that have a reading problem
(C) are placed in regular classroom settings whenever possible also assures those children who are having reading problems
(D) be placed in regular classroom settings whenever possible also assured children with reading problems
(E) should be placed in regular classroom settings whenever possible also has assured all those children with a reading problem
If you say, mandating, then -also assured- is no problem. That becomes a simple sentence with one subject and one verb
If you say mandated, then there is a problem. A simple sentence can have only one verb; the second verb assured (in all the choices) becomes additional and the sentences are run-ons.
This is a fit case for the use of command subjunctive and the base form verb be; Among 1, 2 and 4, 2 is wordier, when it uses children who/that/ have a reading problem, in comparison to 4’s , also assured children with reading problems; 1 and 2 also call their reading problems as a single problem, which does not go well with the plural structure of children

Okies Mr. Curly,
Here's your answer.
The choices we are dealing herewith are all horrible.
However having said that this question has still to be answered.
My vote is for D.
Reasons:
1. The sentence is of type Subjunctive.
Whenver you see words like mandate, demand, insist, recommend, request, require, etc. the sentence is of type subjunctive.
In a subjunctive sentence the verb is always of a form "be". For example, verbs like "is", "are", etc will appear as "be" or in short you shall have verbs in thier base form.
eg:- His requirement is that everyone is computer literate. - Wrong.
His requirment is that everyone be computer literate. - Correct.
So having said that, only choices A and D remain.
D is my opinion is not a run-on as you think.
The reason being, Choice A simply suggests that School board ruling ............... assures Children have a reading problem of special aid.
Remember??? Know your relative pronouns
While Choice D clearly conveys that....
School board ruling ................. assures children with reading problems of a special aid.
HTH
