Educational Settings of Students with Disabilities in Charter and Traditional Public Schools. Fast Facts 3
Center for Learner Equity
This third of six briefs analyzing data from the U.S. Civil Rights Data Collection (CRDC), covering the 2020-21 school year, explores the educational settings where students with disabilities spend their time. As was the case in the analysis of the previous CRDC covering the 2018-19 school year, students with disabilities spend more time in general education settings in charter schools than in traditional public schools. Students with disabilities are also underrepresented in gifted and talented education (GTE) programs, an important complement to ensuring students are educated in the least restrictive environment and provided access to general education curricula.
