COVID-19 School Closures: Addressing Education Issues of Students with Disabilities
Advocates for Children of New Jersey
Federal and state education laws have not changed since the COVID-19 outbreak. Because they were not meant to be implemented during a pandemic, schools and parents are facing barriers in implementing IEPs and 504 plans with remote learning at home. More than ever students will need strong advocates to express concerns and collaborate with school staff.
