For students with disabilities, it can be a rocky transition from a supportive school environment to the "real world" of college and career. What programs and services are helping to clear their path? Which districts and states are doing the best job at preparing students with disabilities to advocate for themselves? And where is the policy and practice falling short? Education Week delves deep into these issues.
Education Week staff writer Christina Samuels, the lead reporter on the Diploma Count 2015 report Next Steps: Life After Graduation, talks with EWA Radio about the national trends, examples of best practices, and story ideas for local reporters writing about special education issues.
