Workgroup

The Austin ISD Special Education Department, Special Education Advisory Committee (SEAC), and the Coalition for Special Education Equity in Austin ISD (CSEE) have partnered together to develop an Inclusion Work Group Committee. Activities and events will be planned to build capacity in the area of inclusion for our administrators, teachers, paraprofessionals, District staff, parents, families, and community members. Model training sites will be developed, and program coaches will provide teachers with direct guidance. Networking and communities of practice opportunities will be developed, and effective parent communication and support practices will be designed. The group will help define what inclusive practices look like for students.
