The recent opinion piece in The New Yorker highlights the Trump administration's aggressive push for school-choice initiatives, including voucher programs that divert public funds to private and faith-based schools. Critics argue this approach undermines public education, especially harming students with disabilities. The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (I.D.E.A.) ensures rights and services for these students, but private schools aren't bound by its mandates. Shifting funds away from public schools could lead to fewer resources and protections for vulnerable students, exacerbating existing challenges. This situation raises concerns about the future of inclusive education and the equitable treatment of all students. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/12/opinion/trump-education-disability.html ...
