About Partners: Our Vision

Our Vision:
* A paradigm shift in peoples’ attitudes about accepting diversity. Children who have learned to work together, collaborate, communicate effectively, and understand differences will be better prepared for work and for life.

* Working with MMSD leadership toward special education policies and other district wide policies that work best in ensuring high educational outcomes for ALL students.

* Ensuring that our schools take advantage of what the community has to offer in a consistent manner across schools.

* Working with Board of Education members and district staff to think of our group as a community resource.

* Assuring that each MMSD principal has a more thorough understanding of special education issues and has a commitment to inclusive education.

* Supporting training so that teachers can effectively use differentiation, and continued professional development for related service staff and Special Education Assistants on inclusive service delivery.
