“Students with Disabilities” Louisiana Department of Education Policy on Resources for Special Education and Transition

~~“Families: Families need easy, transparent access to information, services, and supports to advocate effectively for the needs of their child, regardless of whether they are struggling and may need special education and related services, or have already been identified as a student with a disability.

Educators: Educators need tools and resources to support students with disabilities so they have every opportunity to grow and thrive, including aligned, high-quality instructional resources that support their unique needs.

Administrators: Special education leaders need key resources and supports to build structures and processes across their school system to ensure students with disabilities have the special education and related supports they need, and these supports are coordinated over time.”
