For Teachers and Educators <\/h1>\n
\n

Welcome to the State of Delaware education resource page for teachers and educators working with students with disabilities. This site is maintained by Delaware’s Exceptional Children Resources<\/a> workgroup and provides teachers, paraprofessionals, and other in-classroom personnel with education-related information and available supports for meeting the needs of Delaware’s students with disabilities. <\/p>\n

Delaware operates with the knowledge that children with disabilities are successful in the classroom and beyond when high expectations exist alongside appropriate supports. Our goal is to assist educators throughout Delaware in their mission to prepare students with disabilities for their goals after high school. Delaware’s Exceptional Children Resources workgroup helps to ensure those working directly with the students are providing effective and meaningful experiences for students with disabilities. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
