Day 15: Disability & Education
Share what resonated with you from Day 15! Here's the discussion questions to get you started: Think about a time when you felt accepted, supported, and included in school. What made that true or possible? How might schools leaders, students, and families create those opportunities for students with disabilities and others? What is one change a school, college, or training program could make to better supports students with disabilities?

Day 1
I was shocked to learn that 1 in 4 people have some type of disability as well. It's a reminder to be kind, patient, and take the steps necessary to ensure everyone I interact with can walk away with a positive experience.
