There is very little communication about changes and things that need to happen, are happening, or are soon to happen. Many students even stress iver college because they have no idea what to do, and there's not a lot of help. While the education and diversity are great, that's also only subjective to people who are without a 504 or IEP, or even part of the special education program. It's not fair and most teachers don't understand nor do as they should.
