Abstract	The purpose of this basic narrative qualitative study was to examine the experiences of veteran special education (SPED) teachers during the COVID-19 pandemic in order to gain a deeper understanding of the impact the COVID-19 pandemic had on their perceptions of self-efficacy regarding their ability to meet the needs of special education students and their families. The study recounted the lived experiences of 17 veteran special education teachers in Missouri. The participants reported the changes they experienced in their job descriptions, relationships with others, mental health, and perceptions of self-efficacy throughout 2020 and the COVID-19 pandemic. The teachers in this study spoke of lessons learned throughout COVID. The lingering effects the school shutdown in spring 2020 had on public schools in Missouri were also examined. Overall, this study gives a look into the lives of Missouri veteran special education teachers during a global pandemic and provides insight into how their lives changed, the lessons they learned, and what it means for the future of education.
