Join Sara Williams and Sara Thompson in an engaging and collaborative session designed for education stakeholders. In this presentation, we will thoroughly review data pertaining to the increasing population of students requiring specialized support within Pasadena Independent School District. Together, we will explore and brainstorm innovative solutions and best practices for effective instruction and inclusion, particularly as the needs of this population extend beyond the traditional capabilities of self-contained autism classes. This session aims to foster dialogue and partnership among stakeholders to enhance educational outcomes for all students.
