The General Curriculum Access Projects for Students with Significant Disabilities is a U.S. Department of Education- Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP) funded grant (H324D020027) to develop strategies to support quality instructional services to students with significant disabilities. Goals of this grant include examination of current practices to define access to the general education curriculum, instructional activities that assist in acquisition of literacy, math, and science skills, and an evaluation by stakeholders of the effects of instructional activities that align with the general education curriculum. The following are activities that have been completed as part of this project:
