The COVID-19 pandemic affected student learning across the board. While almost all students declined academically, a report from The Center for Learner Equity found that students with disabilities were especially impacted.
Students with disabilities often face wide and persistent achievement gaps. With the more than 7 million young people with disabilities in the United States, it begs the question of what more we can do to support them.
What challenges do students with disabilities face? How can we create more inclusive spaces and services for these students to thrive? And how can we help our schools be more equitable and supportive when it comes to special education?
In this episode, Kevin is joined by Lauren Rhim to discuss how we can better support students with disabilities.
