In this breakout session, teachers, principal, and ACCESS Project team members will share the process of implementing UDL school-wide by sharing accomplishments and barriers along the way, and how their vision for the middle school has transformed the school. Participants will participate in question and answer break-out sessions with the teachers, principal and ACCESS Project team, as well as have time to plan for a future filled with UDL.
