Season 4 Trailer: Resetting and Restarting in Special Education

The circumstances of the 2020-2021 school year offered many opportunities for innovation and new ways of delivering learning, and in many ways our field has grown stronger as a result. But nevertheless, we are starting to see in statewide data that some students have experienced significant learning losses as a result of the pandemic, especially among vulnerable student populations - including students with disabilities. But there is good reason to be hopeful. There are powerful and evidence-based solutions for so many of these challenges our students face! For that reason, SST8 is kicking off the podcast this year by reflecting upon ways that we can intentionally reset and restart education once more. Join us this season on 8 with 8, as we refresh our expectations and strategies around leadership, school climate, curriculum, instruction, and assessment, family engagement, and college and career readiness. We will bring you some bite-size episodes, with quick and actionable ideas. We will also have some interviews with some amazing leaders who have taken this challenging season as an opportunity to dig even deeper into utilizing evidence-based and creative strategies for supporting diverse learners. As always, we’re here with you every step of the way. Enjoy the rest of your summer and we’ll meet you back here on August 13th, at 8 with 8!
