Building Level Administrators Workgroup Charge

Identify topics for resources and other support to provide to building level administrators working within special education.

Based on CEC’s 2019 State of the Profession Survey, there is a need to better engage with and support principals who are working with special education teachers. Teachers overwhelmingly share that they need administrators who support their professional efforts. There are specific needs that building level administrators have versus administrators of special education departments that may not be covered by CEC or CASE.
