Resources to Support Student Progress in the General Curriculum

The Texas Education Agency and the Vaughn Gross Center for Reading and Language Arts (VGCRLA) have collaborated to create professional development products and special education materials for students with disabilities to have greater access to the general curriculum. VGCRLA works with the Meadows Center for Preventing Educational Risk (MCPER) as combined Organized Research Units with the College of Education at the University of Texas at Austin.

Two available resources are:  

• Instructional Decision-Making Procedures for Ensuring Appropriate Instruction for Struggling Students -The purpose of this booklet is to provide campus-based administrators and educators with procedures for ensuring appropriate instruction for students struggling with reading, mathematics, and behavior, and for students who are English language learners. 
• VGCRLA Materials - Materials produced by the Vaughn Gross Center are housed in the library for the MCPER.
