Transition Services for Special Education Students
The question many families ask themselves is what happens to their loved one after the they
graduate high school? It is state mandate that all public schools in the United States identifies,
evaluates and provides the proper intervention to the students. But after school is over and
students with special needs, or learning difficulties go off to college there is no longer anyone
that advocates for them, and they are left to advocate for themselves. College is nothing like
regular high school or elementary once a person is in college, they are responsible for
advocating their own needs, and if they can and want colleges will make some adaptations.
Due to these reason, it make many students with special needs not go to college after they
graduate high school. This article speaks on the number of students that do end up attending
college or any type of secondary education, speaking on student responsibility, rights and
probabilities.

After students leave high school accommodations come to an end. According to Preparing
Students with Disabilities for the Transition to College (n.d.) only 55 percent of students with
disabilities end up going to secondary school. The author explains how this percentage can be
impacted by the lack teacher to student preparation and also lack of knowledge. Many parents
do not know how things will change once their students leaves regular school and go off to
college. Teachers do not give the student the right preparation to have the tools that are
needed to prepare when they will be going to college and fend for themselves.
Student responsibility is also a key point in the process of transitioning to college.
When students graduate high school, their services also terminate, and legal protection.

I feel that transition services can be a topic of high concern for any person who has a family
member with special needs. What will happen when a student no longer has the help or
accommodations in their educational system? Many students do not attend secondary school
because they do not have the grades or are not at the level of academic knowledge, there for
they are afraid of how they will navigate at a college level. I believe that it is imperative to
not only help students while they are in high school, but also prepare them for real life, and
what comes after high school. Trainings for families and students to search for options and
programs that can be used to help them at a college level is a great way that students can have
more opportunities to be able to attend college. "1 in 36 children in the U.S. have autism, up

impacted by the lack teacher to student preparation and also lack of knowledge. Many parents
do not know how things will change once their students leaves regular school and go off to
college. Teachers do not give the student the right preparation to have the tools that are
needed to prepare when they will be going to college and fend for themselves.
Student responsibility is also a key point in the process of transitioning to college.
When students graduate high school, their services also terminate, and legal protection.

I feel that transition services can be a topic of high concern for any person who has a family
member with special needs. What will happen when a student no longer has the help or
accommodations in their educational system? Many students do not attend secondary school
because they do not have the grades or are not at the level of academic knowledge, there for
they are afraid of how they will navigate at a college level. I believe that it is imperative to
not only help students while they are in high school, but also prepare them for real life, and
what comes after high school. Trainings for families and students to search for options and
programs that can be used to help them at a college level is a great way that students can have
more opportunities to be able to attend college. "1 in 36 children in the U.S. have autism, up
from the previous rate of 1 in 44.
The question many families ask themselves is what happens to their loved one after the they
graduate high school? It is state mandate that all public schools in the United States identifies,
evaluates and provides the proper intervention to the students. But after school is over and
students with special needs, or learning difficulties go off to college there is no longer anyone
that advocates for them, and they are left to advocate for themselves. College is nothing like
regular high school or elementary once a person is in college, they are responsible for
advocating their own needs, and if they can and want colleges will make some adaptations.
Due to these reason, it make many students with special needs not go to college after they
graduate high school. This article speaks on the number of students that do end up attending
college or any type of secondary education, speaking on student responsibility, rights and
probabilities.

member with special needs. What will happen when a student no longer has the help or
accommodations in their educational system? Many students do not attend secondary school
because they do not have the grades or are not at the level of academic knowledge, there for

advocating their own needs, and if they can and want colleges will make some adaptations.
Due to these reason, it make many students with special needs not go to college after they
graduate high school. This article speaks on the number of students that do end up attending
college or any type of secondary education, speaking on student responsibility, rights and
probabilities.

disabilities end up going to secondary school. The author explains how this percentage can be
impacted by the lack teacher to student preparation and also lack of knowledge. Many parents
do not know how things will change once their students leaves regular school and go off to
college. Teachers do not give the student the right preparation to have the tools that are

After students leave high school accommodations come to an end. According to Preparing
Students with Disabilities for the Transition to College (n.d.) only 55 percent of students with
disabilities end up going to secondary school. The author explains how this percentage can be
impacted by the lack teacher to student preparation and also lack of knowledge. Many parents
do not know how things will change once their students leaves regular school and go off to
college. Teachers do not give the student the right preparation to have the tools that are
needed to prepare when they will be going to college and fend for themselves.

I feel that transition services can be a topic of high concern for any person who has a family
member with special needs. What will happen when a student no longer has the help or
accommodations in their educational system? Many students do not attend secondary school
because they do not have the grades or are not at the level of academic knowledge, there for
they are afraid of how they will navigate at a college level. I believe that it is imperative to
not only help students while they are in high school, but also prepare them for real life, and
what comes after high school. Trainings for families and students to search for options and
programs that can be used to help them at a college level is a great way that students can have
more opportunities to be able to attend college. "1 in 36 children in the U.S. have autism, up

students with special needs, or learning difficulties go off to college there is no longer anyone

I feel that transition services can be a topic of high concern for any person who has a family
member with special needs. What will happen when a student no longer has the help or
accommodations in their educational system? Many students do not attend secondary school
because they do not have the grades or are not at the level of academic knowledge, there for
they are afraid of how they will navigate at a college level. I believe that it is imperative to
not only help students while they are in high school, but also prepare them for real life, and
what comes after high school. Trainings for families and students to search for options and
programs that can be used to help them at a college level is a great way that students can have
more opportunities to be able to attend college. "1 in 36 children in the U.S. have autism, up
from the previous rate of 1 in 44.
The question many families ask themselves is what happens to their loved one after the they
graduate high school? It is state mandate that all public schools in the United States identifies,
evaluates and provides the proper intervention to the students. But after school is over and
students with special needs, or learning difficulties go off to college there is no longer anyone
that advocates for them, and they are left to advocate for themselves. College is nothing like
regular high school or elementary once a person is in college, they are responsible for
advocating their own needs, and if they can and want colleges will make some adaptations.
Due to these reason, it make many students with special needs not go to college after they
graduate high school. This article speaks on the number of students that do end up attending
college or any type of secondary education, speaking on student responsibility, rights and
probabilities.

After students leave high school accommodations come to an end. According to Preparing
Students with Disabilities for the Transition to College (n.d.) only 55 percent of students with
disabilities end up going to secondary school. The author explains how this percentage can be
impacted by the lack teacher to student preparation and also lack of knowledge. Many parents
do not know how things will change once their students leaves regular school and go off to
college. Teachers do not give the student the right preparation to have the tools that are
needed to prepare when they will be going to college and fend for themselves.
Student responsibility is also a key point in the process of transitioning to college.

I feel that transition services can be a topic of high concern for any person who has a family
member with special needs. What will happen when a student no longer has the help or
accommodations in their educational system? Many students do not attend secondary school
because they do not have the grades or are not at the level of academic knowledge, there for
they are afraid of how they will navigate at a college level. I believe that it is imperative to
not only help students while they are in high school, but also prepare them for real life, and
what comes after high school. Trainings for families and students to search for options and
programs that can be used to help them at a college level is a great way that students can have
more opportunities to be able to attend college. "1 in 36 children in the U.S. have autism, up
from the previous rate of 1 in 44.

graduate high school? It is state mandate that all public schools in the United States identifies,
evaluates and provides the proper intervention to the students. But after school is over and
students with special needs, or learning difficulties go off to college there is no longer anyone
that advocates for them, and they are left to advocate for themselves. College is nothing like
regular high school or elementary once a person is in college, they are responsible for
advocating their own needs, and if they can and want colleges will make some adaptations.
Due to these reason, it make many students with special needs not go to college after they
graduate high school. This article speaks on the number of students that do end up attending
college or any type of secondary education, speaking on student responsibility, rights and

I feel that transition services can be a topic of high concern for any person who has a family
member with special needs. What will happen when a student no longer has the help or
accommodations in their educational system? Many students do not attend secondary school
because they do not have the grades or are not at the level of academic knowledge, there for
they are afraid of how they will navigate at a college level. I believe that it is imperative to
not only help students while they are in high school, but also prepare them for real life, and

regular high school or elementary once a person is in college, they are responsible for
advocating their own needs, and if they can and want colleges will make some adaptations.
Due to these reason, it make many students with special needs not go to college after they
graduate high school. This article speaks on the number of students that do end up attending
college or any type of secondary education, speaking on student responsibility, rights and
probabilities.

disabilities end up going to secondary school. The author explains how this percentage can be
impacted by the lack teacher to student preparation and also lack of knowledge. Many parents
do not know how things will change once their students leaves regular school and go off to
college. Teachers do not give the student the right preparation to have the tools that are

Students with Disabilities for the Transition to College (n.d.) only 55 percent of students with
disabilities end up going to secondary school. The author explains how this percentage can be
impacted by the lack teacher to student preparation and also lack of knowledge. Many parents
do not know how things will change once their students leaves regular school and go off to
college. Teachers do not give the student the right preparation to have the tools that are
needed to prepare when they will be going to college and fend for themselves.
Student responsibility is also a key point in the process of transitioning to college.

I feel that transition services can be a topic of high concern for any person who has a family
member with special needs. What will happen when a student no longer has the help or
accommodations in their educational system? Many students do not attend secondary school
because they do not have the grades or are not at the level of academic knowledge, there for
they are afraid of how they will navigate at a college level. I believe that it is imperative to
not only help students while they are in high school, but also prepare them for real life, and
what comes after high school. Trainings for families and students to search for options and
programs that can be used to help them at a college level is a great way that students can have
more opportunities to be able to attend college. "1 in 36 children in the U.S. have autism, up
from the previous rate of 1 in 44.
The question many families ask themselves is what happens to their loved one after the they
graduate high school? It is state mandate that all public schools in the United States identifies,
evaluates and provides the proper intervention to the students. But after school is over and
students with special needs, or learning difficulties go off to college there is no longer anyone
that advocates for them, and they are left to advocate for themselves. College is nothing like
regular high school or elementary once a person is in college, they are responsible for
advocating their own needs, and if they can and want colleges will make some adaptations.
Due to these reason, it make many students with special needs not go to college after they
graduate high school. This article speaks on the number of students that do end up attending
college or any type of secondary education, speaking on student responsibility, rights and
probabilities.

I feel that transition services can be a topic of high concern for any person who has a family
member with special needs. What will happen when a student no longer has the help or
accommodations in their educational system? Many students do not attend secondary school
because they do not have the grades or are not at the level of academic knowledge, there for
they are afraid of how they will navigate at a college level. I believe that it is imperative to
not only help students while they are in high school, but also prepare them for real life, and
what comes after high school. Trainings for families and students to search for options and

graduate high school? It is state mandate that all public schools in the United States identifies,
evaluates and provides the proper intervention to the students. But after school is over and
students with special needs, or learning difficulties go off to college there is no longer anyone

regular high school or elementary once a person is in college, they are responsible for
advocating their own needs, and if they can and want colleges will make some adaptations.
Due to these reason, it make many students with special needs not go to college after they
graduate high school. This article speaks on the number of students that do end up attending
college or any type of secondary education, speaking on student responsibility, rights and
probabilities.

disabilities end up going to secondary school. The author explains how this percentage can be
impacted by the lack teacher to student preparation and also lack of knowledge. Many parents
do not know how things will change once their students leaves regular school and go off to
college. Teachers do not give the student the right preparation to have the tools that are
needed to prepare when they will be going to college and fend for themselves.

Students with Disabilities for the Transition to College (n.d.) only 55 percent of students with
disabilities end up going to secondary school. The author explains how this percentage can be
impacted by the lack teacher to student preparation and also lack of knowledge. Many parents
do not know how things will change once their students leaves regular school and go off to
college. Teachers do not give the student the right preparation to have the tools that are

because they do not have the grades or are not at the level of academic knowledge, there for
they are afraid of how they will navigate at a college level. I believe that it is imperative to
not only help students while they are in high school, but also prepare them for real life, and
what comes after high school. Trainings for families and students to search for options and
programs that can be used to help them at a college level is a great way that students can have
more opportunities to be able to attend college. "1 in 36 children in the U.S. have autism, up

Personal Response
I feel that transition services can be a topic of high concern for any person who has a family
member with special needs. What will happen when a student no longer has the help or
accommodations in their educational system? Many students do not attend secondary school
because they do not have the grades or are not at the level of academic knowledge, there for
they are afraid of how they will navigate at a college level. I believe that it is imperative to
not only help students while they are in high school, but also prepare them for real life, and
what comes after high school. Trainings for families and students to search for options and
programs that can be used to help them at a college level is a great way that students can have
more opportunities to be able to attend college. "1 in 36 children in the U.S. have autism, up
from the previous rate of 1 in 44.
The question many families ask themselves is what happens to their loved one after the they
graduate high school? It is state mandate that all public schools in the United States identifies,
evaluates and provides the proper intervention to the students. But after school is over and
students with special needs, or learning difficulties go off to college there is no longer anyone
that advocates for them, and they are left to advocate for themselves. College is nothing like
regular high school or elementary once a person is in college, they are responsible for
advocating their own needs, and if they can and want colleges will make some adaptations.
Due to these reason, it make many students with special needs not go to college after they
graduate high school. This article speaks on the number of students that do end up attending
college or any type of secondary education, speaking on student responsibility, rights and
probabilities.
Analyses of Authors Key Points
After students leave high school accommodations come to an end. According to Preparing
Students with Disabilities for the Transition to College (n.d.) only 55 percent of students with
disabilities end up going to secondary school. The author explains how this percentage can be
impacted by the lack teacher to student preparation and also lack of knowledge. Many parents
do not know how things will change once their students leaves regular school and go off to
college. Teachers do not give the student the right preparation to have the tools that are
needed to prepare when they will be going to college and fend for themselves.
Student responsibility is also a key point in the process of transitioning to college.
When students graduate high school, their services also terminate, and legal protection.
