The No Child Left Behind Act (2001) and Individuals With Disabilities Education Act (IDEA, 2004) had implications for teachers and students at all levels (i.e., elementary, middle, high school). Specifically, IDEA had implications for secondary students with disabilities because it required students with disabilities exit high school prepared for postschool education, employment, and independent living. When considering federal mandates and reform initiatives, state and local education agencies have to consider how students with disabilities and secondary transition will be affected. The purpose of this article is to provide an overview of secondary transition evidence-based practices and predictors of postschool success for student with disabilities. Implications for policymakers related to improving secondary transition programs and practices at federal, state, and local levels are discussed.
