From Struggle to Success: Response to Intervention as a Tool in Special Education
Thursday July 31, 2025 10:30am - 11:15am CDT
Hensley Ferry
“Struggle to Success” is often used as a metaphor in special education to describe the journey students with disabilities or learning challenges take, from facing difficulties to achieving personal growth and academic success. This concept emphasizes the importance of resilience, support and individualized strategies to overcome barriers and help these students realize their full potential. Ultimately, RTI as a tool in special education is about fostering an inclusive environment where students are given the resources, strategies, and encouragement they need to succeed. Participants will walk away with valuable tools to provide interventions to special education students in both their special education and regular education classrooms.
