Is Special Ed Working? An eye-opening discussion with Dr. Nathan Levenson, president of New Solutions K12 and a nationally recognized expert on special education. The U.S. has spent over a trillion dollars on special education in the past 50 years, yet the achievement gap between students with IEPs and those without remains unchanged. What’s going wrong? More importantly, what can parents do to ensure special education truly benefits their children’s future?
Attorneys Jennifer Laviano and Andy Feinstein, along with special guests, dive into how the Trump Administration has affected Special Education, what it may do next, and what you can do about it. This important discussion was broadcast live on Zoom from the Council of Parent Attorneys and Advocates (COPAA) National Conference, where some of the top experts in the field discussed these critical issues on SEEK Speaks.
