The critical roles school leaders play in the implementation of current best practices in parental engagement, inclusion, universal design for instruction, transition services, and the importance of providing a continuum of educational services for students with disabilities will be explored. The course is designed for aspiring school principals, directors of special education and other PreK-12 administrators. Field work is a required component.
