About this comic
A teacher of students with special needs discovers why, to his surprise, his students had better attendance throughout the pandemic than non-special needs students. Social isolation was actually socially healthier for some students who felt, as one student explained, they could “focus on learning instead of avoiding problems” presented by school rules and by other students who bullied them.
