School teams face multiple challenges in meeting the learning needs of secondary-level students with SLD/Dyslexia. This recorded webinar focuses on the systems-level issues pertinent to providing accommodations and specialized reading and writing instruction for these students.

A range of low-to-high assistive technology (AT) will be explored that can support students' access to general education curricular content. In addition, a Connecticut Director of Special Education will discuss her district-level strategy for building capacity to meet the needs of secondary students with SLD/Dyslexia. The structures of secondary education will be explored, including staffing and scheduling solutions unique to middle and high school programs.
