Building off the success of the three-year Networked Improvement Community for Students with Disabilities, the IGNITE Network is providing educators and school leaders with resources and support to help students with disabilities achieve their full potential – and ultimately create a stronger education experience for all students. Over two years, these schools will receive coaching and support to implement one or more of three evidence-based practices spanning literacy, multi-tiered systems of support, and collaborative teaching and teaming structures.
