State Systems Change Spotlight: Alabama. Transforming State Systems to Improve Outcomes for Children with Disabilities
Hayes, Susan; Meinders, Dona; Rosborough, Jana
National Center for Systemic Improvement at WestEd
The Alabama State Department of Education (ALSDE) aims to increase the number of students with disabilities who achieve positive post-school outcomes and engage in higher education or competitive employment opportunities. Through their State Systemic Improvement Plan (SSIP) and State Personnel Development Grant (SPDG), Alabama is focusing on improving post-school outcomes for students with disabilities by working to increase student engagement; improve academic performance; and provide effective, inclusive learning environments. The state developed a network of demonstration sites to help support the scale-up of these practices. This report highlights Alabama's approach to supporting selected middle schools to become demonstration sites, a key strategy in their overall SSIP scale-up efforts. [This report was written with support from Gena Nelson.]
