The need to improve outcomes among students with disabilities (SWD) by increasing teachers' skilled use of evidence-based practices (EBPs) has been a pressing challenge around the country. Texas, in particular, has a specific focus on supporting the increased use of teachers' EBPs within their State Systemic Improvement Plan (SSIP). Therefore, knowing that research indicates that coaching can lead to improved teacher practice and student outcomes, including for SWD, the Texas Education Agency (TEA) embarked on a journey to use coaching to improve teacher practices. This state spotlight focuses on Texas's implementation effort, which aimed to embed and sustain an effective coaching framework across the state so that SWD could demonstrate marked educational gains.
