School Readiness for Each and Every Child: More Than Academic Preparedness
A Special Education Workshop in Breckenridge, Colorado + Coursework Online
School readiness is more than just academic preparedness; it involves fostering social-emotional development, implementing positive behavioral supports, and ensuring schools are ready to meet the diverse needs of each and every child, including children with disabilities. This interactive workshop is designed for administrators, teachers, and early childhood staff who work with children ages birth to age five with disabilities. Participants will explore key topics including addressing challenging behaviors, creating "ready schools," providing social and academic supports, engaging parents, and reducing exclusionary practices like suspension and expulsion. The Summit will include discussions, hands-on activities, case studies, and collaborative planning to ensure that each and every child, including children with disabilities, has access to high-quality, inclusive early learning environments that set them up for long-term success. This Summit balances research-based content with interactive discussions and planning to help participants apply strategies in their own schools and classrooms.
