The 2015 edition of Education Week’s Diplomas Count report—Next Steps: Life After Special Education—explores the experiences of students with disabilities who are coming of age at a time when they, like all high school students, are increasingly expected to perform to high academic standards and to prepare for further education or training and a productive role in the workplace. This 10th installment of the annual report highlights the challenges and opportunities awaiting these students as they transition from the K-12 education system to a more independent adult life.
