Description

Students with EBDs are “among the most marginalized students in US schools” (Melloy & Murry, 2019, p. 113). Even though these students spend 80% of their school day in the general education classroom, teachers lack knowledge and training to work with them. More professional development opportunities are needed to provide equitable education for these students.
