Purpose Public policies can influence how speech-language pathologists (SLPs) provide services to students with disabilities. Specifically, this article is intended to provide background information and critical analysis regarding the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) as it relates to speech-language pathology practice and provision of services to students with disabilities within the schools. Method The authors reviewed legislation text, publications from national education and speech and language organizations, and critical educational policy and research articles to examine the role that SLPs can play in the implementation of ESSA for students with disabilities. Results SLPs and other education professionals utilize ESSA to improve access to a well-rounded, college- and career-focused education for all students. ESSA state plans may not fully maximize equal opportunities for students with disabilities. There are additional ways that SLPs can capitalize on ESSA to expand and improve their service provision to students with disabilities, including SLPs broadening their understanding of the role ESSA plays in facilitating positive practices for students with and without disabilities. Conclusions SLPs, teachers, and other stakeholders can improve the impact of ESSA on students with disabilities by helping to improve accountability systems for the educational outcomes of students with disabilities, supporting funding allocation for students with disabilities and struggling learners in the general education setting, and assisting local education agencies to better align ESSA with the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act.

将政策付诸实践:每个学生成功法案对语言病理学家和残疾学生的影响。

目的 公共政策可以影响语言病理学家 (SLP) 如何为残疾学生提供服务。具体而言,本文旨在提供有关《每个学生都成功法案》(ESSA) 的背景信息和批判性分析,因为它涉及语言病理学实践和为学校内的残疾学生提供服务。方法 作者回顾了立法文本、国家教育和演讲和语言组织的出版物以及重要的教育政策和研究文章,以检查 SLP 在为残疾学生实施 ESSA 中可以发挥的作用。结果 SLP 和其他教育专业人士利用 ESSA 来改善所有学生获得以大学和职业为中心的全面教育的机会。ESSA 州计划可能无法充分最大化残疾学生的平等机会。SLP 还可以通过其他方式利用 ESSA 扩大和改善对残疾学生的服务,包括 SLP 拓宽他们对 ESSA 在促进残疾学生和非残疾学生积极实践方面所发挥的作用的理解。结论 SLP、教师和其他利益相关者可以通过帮助改善残疾学生教育成果的问责制度,支持在普通教育环境中为残疾学生和学习困难的学生分配资金,从而提高 ESSA 对残疾学生的影响,以及协助当地教育机构更好地使 ESSA 与《残疾人教育法》保持一致。
