For the past seven months, we have been working as a group to explore equity in education in our hometowns. Although they border each other, the school systems of Yonkers and Bronxville are vastly different. The aspect of these differences that we chose to focus on is the quality of education for students with disabilities, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. Students with disabilities were disproportionately affected by the isolation and adversity that was imposed on us all. As a result of this inequality, we decided to interview educators and school employees to delve deeper into how these students were affected by these issues, how their mentors responded to these challenges, and what each school district did to combat these problems.
