Most studies
regarding students receiving special education services focus on students
who are able to receive these services within their local public
school district. Information about special education students
who receive their educational services in the private sector remains
scarce, even though the students educated in these settings, about
1% of all special education students nationwide, are often the most
disabled of all special education students.
In order to learn
more about this segment of the special
education population, NAPSEC, an association of over 300 approved private
special education schools and agencies, has conducted a study of the
students who exited from its member schools. Information about the educational settings to which
transfer students planned to move as well as the plans made by the
graduates/aged-out students who left a NAPSEC program has been gathered.
NAPSEC has studied the exit plans of these students and the findings
are posted here for your review.
