Vision

The IPTN envisions a future where every student in Washington state has improved access to rigorous and standards-based instruction and improved postsecondary outcomes based on their strengths, preferences, goals, and needs.

Aim Statement

The IPTN will provide high-quality guidance, technical assistance, and professional development resources to districts to disrupt segregated systems of disproportionality and reduce exclusionary practices in Washington state schools. 

This will result in improved student outcomes, with an additional focus on the outcomes and the inclusion of students currently in Least Restrictive Environment (LRE) 3 and Black students with disabilities.
