Supporting Every Learner: Gaining Awareness of Disabilities in the Classroom **STISD Staff ONLY**

Complete Attendance not available before workshop starts.

Paraprofessionals are critical members of the educational team and often have the most direct, daily interactions with students with disabilities. This introductory session is designed to build a strong foundation of understanding around disability and the powerful role paraprofessionals play in supporting students across a variety of needs.

Participants will explore key disability categories, learn how language and attitudes shape student experiences, and examine real-world strategies for supporting independence, dignity, and collaborative learning in the classroom. Through interactive activities, case examples, and reflection, paraprofessionals will gain practical tools for fostering a more respectful, and empowering learning environment for all students.
Participants will leave with:
* A better understanding of IDEA's 13 disabilities
* Practical strategies for support
* Renewed confidence in their role as student advocates
