District Profiles

The purpose of these profiles is to surface and report on the conditions that exist at various levels of a school district with an eye toward their relationship and influence on four outcomes across the Institute’s synergy sites:

• Increased numbers of students with disabilities served effectively in general education settings
• Increased use of research validated culturally responsive practices in early intervention, reading, behavior, and universal designs for learning
• Increased numbers of inclusive schools with records of effective, achievement oriented, culturally responsive success with students with disabilities
• Increased number of effective, improvement strategies for special and general education professional development and technical assistance that are unified and coherent across schools within large, urban school districts
