Maine’s Statewide
Systems Change Initiative
for Inclusive Education
A collaborative effort of
the Maine Department of Education, the University of Maine
and the Center for Community Inclusion and Disability Studies.
LEARNS is a professional
development and technical assistance initiative supporting Maine schools
and educators as they build their capacity to assure that all Maine students,
including those with significant disabilities, have access to participate
and progress in the general curriculum, extracurricular activities, and
their home communities.
LEARNS staff works in
partnership with schools and organizations to enhance delivery of high–quality instruction, assessment, and inclusive education opportunities so
that each and every student demonstrates progress and achievement of
Maine’s Learning Results and be best prepared for quality after–school
outcomes.
