Flynn, Michaline L.

Abstract Details

2017, Specialist in Education (Ed.S.), University of Dayton, School Psychology.
The transition from high school to post-secondary life is especially difficult for students with high-incidence disabilities.The purpose of the present study was to examine the educational experiences of students with high-incidence disabilities, such as ASD, specific learning disability, and ADHD, who received post-secondary transitional services. Participants included (n = 25) seniors in high school with current IEPs, who completed questionnaires regarding their experience with post-secondary transitional services and were interviewed after graduation to share their perceptions of the process and services they received to prepare them for post-secondary life Results suggest that participants perceive themselves as prepared for their post-secondary goals both before graduation and during the fall after graduation; however, they do not attribute their readiness to the services received in school. Implications for practice and future research are discussed.
