Years of research point to inequities in education for students of color, students from low-income backgrounds, and students with disabilities. These inequities are particularly apparent when it comes to rates of discipline and special education enrollment.
Significant Disproportionality:

NCLD created a comprehensive white paper and six accompanying briefs to share data showing how students from specific communities are impacted.
