Inclusive Practices Spotlight
What do INCLUSIVE PRACTICES look like in team infrastructure?
- Case management structure runs across varying disability types and severity.
- Educational assistants are not assigned to support only one teacher or only one student.
- Inclusion is considered when determining the master schedule.

- School team and service providers meet regularly to discuss students and have shared ownership over student needs in the school.
