Spotlight on Sessions: Inclusion
Our 3-part session series on inclusive classrooms presented by Dr Julie Causton will get you inspired and ready for change!
The sessions will focus on creating inclusive schools through differentiated education and presuming competence to create inclusive schools and supporting behaviors of challenging students. Julie will be sharing tips from her popular books such as The Educator’s Handbook for Inclusive School Practices and The Principal’s Handbook for Leading Inclusive Schools.
Spotlight on Transition Sessions: “Turning 18 in Virginia: What Individuals with Disabilities Need to Consider”
Turning 18 is a big deal for all individuals. An 18-year-old is legally considered an adult in Virginia. Therefore, when your child turns 18, he/she is the person that makes legal, financial, medical, and educational decisions in his/her life. For some individuals with disabilities, this will not be an issue. Others may need support. This workshop will share basic information about things that need to be considered as your loved one turns 18. This session is being presented by the Parent Educational Advocacy Training Center (PEATC).
