So there was no achievement gap between demographics at your high school? Everyone performed the same and performed well?

I’m disabled. There is a far more severe ‘achievement gap’ for students who are disabled, and with my disability, than there are for students based on race. Far more.

The average person with my disability learns to read at a grade 3 level, and generally that’s as far as they get.

If I can do it, then any of the others can do the same.
