A new NPR/Ipsos poll among parents of school-aged children finds that most parents report their kids are rebounding from the educational toll of the pandemic, at least from an academic perspective. However, these improvements are not felt equally parents whose child(ren) receive special education services or have an Individualized Education Plan (IEP). The poll also finds that many parents report their child has experienced mental health issues during the pandemic, and more would welcome mental health counseling for their child now compared to last February.
