Summary: National Special Education Day is observed annually on December 2. This day marks the anniversary of our nation’s first federal special education law, which was signed by President Gerald Ford on December 2, 1975. This law made education available to all American children, and it provided the foundation for the highly specialized and inclusive programs that we have today. The Tahoe Truckee Unified School District would like to take this opportunity to formally acknowledge our team of special educators by recognizing December 2, 2024, as our fourth observance of Special Education Day and designating the week of December 2 through 6 as Special Educator Appreciation Week.
