The mission of the U.S. Department of Education is to promote student achievement by encouraging educational excellence as well as equal access to educational opportunities. The Department of Education is involved in establishing federal financial aid policies, collecting data on America’s schools, and prohibiting discrimination.
The Office for Civil Rights (an arm of the Department of Education)publishes a pamphlet, called Students with Disabilities Preparing for Postsecondary Education: Know Your Rights and Responsibilities, that explains the rights and responsibilities of students with disabilities as they prepare to continue their education past high school.
The website where this pamphlet is available also contains a number of questions and answers that a student in your community may be interested in as they get ready to make the transition to post-secondary education.
