Inclusive Practices Visioning & Implementation

ADAC works with schools to develop a truly comprehensive special education program.

ADAC works with district and school leaders to:

• Examine current inclusive practice structures and cultivate throughout individual schools and across districts a culture of inclusion
• Compare through the analysis of student achievement data the effectiveness of, respectively, exclusionary (push-out) instructional models versus inclusive (push-in) instructional models of service delivery
• Compare student service delivery needs to current systems of service delivery in an effort to illuminate gaps in the service delivery continuum and identify within those systems opportunities for adjustment and improvement
• Recommend adjustments to current practices, including but not limited to practices regarding pedagogy, staffing, budgeting, faculty professional learning, and family engagement

Besides imparting knowledge, increasing confidence is to the task of effective teaching a cardinal task. However, in order to teach confidence, educators must themselves possess it. Some educators may lack the know-how and thus the confidence they need to teach – and reach – students with learning differences. Others may possess the know-how, but lack the confidence. And a few may have the confidence, but lack the know-how.

ADAC helps your educators to find within themselves and then build upon the confidence – and the knowledge – they all need to become educators of and for all.
