RIDE Blueprint & Strategic Plan for DAS.png

The document is Rhode Island's comprehensive plan for improving special education services from 2025-2030, introducing a framework called "Rightful Presence" that aims to create genuine belonging for students with disabilities in schools. It outlines seven strategic goals covering areas like curriculum quality, family partnerships, social-emotional learning, data-driven instruction, early childhood services, and transition planning. The plan was developed through extensive stakeholder engagement and includes specific strategies and actions for each goal, with implementation beginning in the 2025-2026 school year.

All students need is a little help, a little hope, and somebody who believes in them.
