This document summarizes a study on the educational experiences of students with sickle cell disease (SCD). The study found that students with SCD missed an average of 16 school days per year due to SCD-related issues. Students reported a range of negative experiences in school, including being prevented from drinking water, using the bathroom, or being called lazy when tired. Having more teachers and staff aware of a student's SCD did not necessarily correlate with fewer negative experiences. The conclusion calls for changes to the social environment at schools to better support students with SCD.
