There’s a lot happening in special education. We help you keep up.
Special education changes quickly, and the stories that matter don't always make the biggest headlines.
Each week, we look for the developments worth paying attention to and bring the most important ones together for you every Friday.
Every issue includes:
Five special education stories worth knowing — important news and developments from across the country, clearly explained
Why It Matters — the context behind each story and what it could mean for students, families, educators, and schools
Special Education Insight — a deeper dive into an important issue, question, or concept raised by the week's news
Picks of the Week — books, tools, resources, and other noteworthy finds, plus our take on why they're worth your time
Special education looks different depending on where you sit.
That's why Special Education News & Noteworthy isn't written for just one side of the table.
It's for parents trying to understand the systems affecting their children.
It's for teachers and school professionals trying to keep up with a rapidly changing field.
It's for advocates and professionals working alongside families and students.
And it's for anyone who believes students with disabilities deserve equitable access to meaningful, high-quality education.
We believe better information creates better conversations and better outcomes for students.
