We accomplish this through research, advocacy, coalition formation, and capacity building with national, state, and local partners.  \nThe Civil Rights Data Collection (CRDC), maintained and released biennially by the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights (OCR) since 1968, publishes data on leading indicators related to access and barriers to education opportunities from early childhood through grade 12. With each biennial release, CLE analyzes similarities and differences in student populations and student experiences in public charter schools and traditional public schools for students with disabilities. Understanding these national-level data supports success for students with disabilities without regard to educational setting and placement.  \nThe findings shared in this brief are based on data reported in the 2020-2021 CRDC, collected from 97,575 schools. This report uses a data-cleaning methodology that selected a sample of these schools. For more information about the methodology used in these briefs, including a data file and accompanying instructions, see our methodology brief here.  \nStudents with disabilities receive services under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, and both or neither of those laws. Unless otherwise noted, statistics in this brief refer to students eligible to receive services under IDEA.  \nKey Takeaways  \nThe percentage of high school students with disabilities participating in AP and IB programs, enrolling in dual enrollment programs, and taking the SAT/ACT has generally continued to increase over time.  \n The percentage of enrolled high school students who are identified as students with disabilities is functionally  \nequal between traditional public schools and charter schools.  \n‐ However, traditional public high schools enroll a substantially higher percentage of students with low-incidence disabilities, while charter high sch","cbCaijyifMkGvOJx","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaijyifMkGvOJx","pdf",3147635,13,"English","# Key Takeaways\n# Key Questions for Policymakers and Researchers\n## How does access to AP/IB courses affect students’ academic trajectories?\n## How can overlapping opportunities complicate analysis?","[{\"question\":\"Which data source and time period does the brief use?\",\"answer\":\"The brief uses data reported in the 2020–2021 Civil Rights Data Collection (CRDC), collected from 97,575 schools.\"},{\"question\":\"What college-preparatory opportunities are analyzed?\",\"answer\":\"It examines access to SAT and ACT testing, AP and IB coursework, and dual enrollment programs in colleges and universities.\"},{\"question\":\"What trend does the brief report for participation in AP/IB and dual enrollment over time?\",\"answer\":\"The percentage of high school students with disabilities participating in AP and IB programs, enrolling in dual enrollment programs, and taking the SAT/ACT generally increased over time, with specific differences across years and school types for AP, IB, and testing.\"}]","Students with Disabilities in Charter High Schools: Curriculum and College Preparation - October 8, 2024 | PDF",1792045448,33]
