More than Just a Seat: Practical Strategies for True Classroom Inclusion

The presentation includes strategies and systems that LUSD educators can immediately apply in their classrooms and school sites, including:

Practical inclusion structures and scheduling
Collaborative support models
Supporting diverse learners in general education settings
Building systems that promote student success, participation, and belonging
