Book Study: Six Shifts to Improve Special Education and Other Interventions with Nathan Levenson

​Learn. Reflect. Shift Practice. Lead Change.
​Join CASE for this free and engaging book study of Six Shifts to Improve Special Education and Other Interventions by Nathan Levenson. This book study will be led by the author, Nathan Levenson, along with national education leader Glenna Wright-Gallo. Designed for special education leaders, district administrators, and school-based teams, this facilitated experience will challenge participants to rethink systems, structures, and practices that too often limit outcomes for students with disabilities.
Together, we will explore six essential shifts that move schools away from compliance-driven models and toward high-impact, student-centered systems of support. Through guided discussion, and practical application, participants will gain actionable strategies to improve instruction, intervention design, and equitable access to services for all learners.
​If you are a leader leader committed to strengthening special education through data-informed decision-making, inclusive practices, and sustainable systems change, then you need to be part of this book study!
