Purpose Statement: In partnership with schools, families, agencies and communities, the Indiana Center on Teacher Quality seeks to improve educational outcomes for students with and without disabilities by ensuring their access to a Pre K -12 continuum of instruction from high quality teachers. Project Description: The project intends to 1) increase the number of high quality teachers serving students with disabilities by providing job embedded professional development at the state, regional and district levels; 2) increase the number of students with disabilities who have access to a high quality teacher by improving recruitment, support and retention of teachers for students with disabilities across the LRE continuum; and 3) to improve school transitions and post-school outcomes for students with disabilities through partnerships and collaborations among schools, community agencies, higher education and families in a pre-K-12 system of support by aligning the policies and practices of key educational stakeholders across the lifespan serving students with disabilities
