Synopsis
How to raise the achievement of all kids, from gifted to those with severe disabilities This book presents lessons learned from in-depth case studies of some of our most effective inclusive public schools., How to raise the achievement of all kids, from gifted to those with severe disabilities This book presents lessons learned from in-depth case studies of some of our most effective inclusive public schools. The authors conclusively demonstrate that schools can educate students with mild and severe disabilities in general education classrooms by providing special education services that link to and bolster general education instruction. This goes beyond complying with Special Education law; having a truly inclusive environment raises the achievement level for all students and results in more committed and satisfied teachers. Insights shared from teachers, school leaders, parents, and the students themselves provide a path forward for anyone striving to Improve special education services. The authors reveal what these exemplary schools do that makes them so successful, and provide advice for readers who want to incorporate these practices themselves. Hehir, former U.S. Office of Special Education (OSEP) Director, is a leading name in Special Education Highlights the important relationships between administrators, teachers, and parents to foster maximum collaboration between general and special education Includes information on committing to Universal Design for Learning (UDL) and Positive Behavior Supports This vital resource zeroes in on what excellent public schools do differently to ensure all students succeed., Effective Inclusive Schools A rich, rewarding education is often hard to find for children with disabilities. In the words of one parent, "If you have a typically developing kid, you have a litany of choices; if you have a specially developing child, then youre presented with an option. In some schools an anti-disability ethos inadvertently permeates the culture, while other schools hold low expectations for disabled kids by excessively modifying curriculum or segregating students with special needs. These (often unconscious) practices reinforce the view that children with disabilities are inferior and undeserving of an equal education, causing them to leave school unprepared for employment and a rewarding adult life. They also harm nondisabled peers, who often develop negative prejudices about people with disabilities. In this groundbreaking book, Hehir and Katzman focus on the positive: What are our most effective inclusive schools doing? How do their leaders and teachers work together to ensure success for all kids, with or without disabilities? What can other schools do to replicate their success? These portraits of exemplary schools provide a path forward for anyone striving to improve special education services in their classroom, school, or district. Insights shared from teachers, school leaders, parents, and the students themselves will inspire readers to improve education not only for kids with disabilities, but all children. Praise for Effective Inclusive Schools "Finally, a book that cuts to the heart of leadership in schools. Every principal and would-be educational leader in America should read this book." Terrence E. Deal , coauthor, Reframing Organizations and Shaping School Culture

    It arrived intact with wonderful protective wrapping on the package, only a minor mishap on the original manufacturer's behalf where I needed to contact them for a cracked spout that leaked, but this seller helped me when I reached out with my situation and gave friendly instructions to get restituted on my purchase.
