Tired of Explaining, Hoping It’ll Stick?

Every meeting feels like déjà vu—explaining why inclusion matters, trying to ignite change, only to see your colleagues nodding along and the same resource rooms and segregated spaces.

It’s time to align your team and turn hope into action.

Does this sound familiar?

  • You want to change the school system to be more inclusive.
  • You and your committee worked hard on a vision and strategic plan for equity, diversity, and inclusion.
  • You thought everyone was on the same page, ready to hit the ground running.

But instead:

  • You spend your days teaching, preaching, and explaining inclusion to colleagues.
  • You’re shocked by how varied the perceptions, attitudes, and understandings of inclusion are among leaders.
  • Students are still being pulled into resource rooms or separate spaces, and you feel like you’re stuck in a time warp.

Resistance is everywhere—staff, school board members, and even other leaders. But what if your leaders could all align to create a truly inclusive school system?

Our Story: Leading the
Way to Inclusion

We’re Dr. Julie Causton and Dr. Kristie Pretti-Frontczak, and we’ve spent decades helping school leaders like you transform districts into thriving, inclusive communities. We’ve walked alongside leaders navigating resistance, balancing competing priorities, and struggling to inspire change.

Inclusion isn’t just about students with disabilities joining general education classrooms. It’s about creating schools where every student feels they belong, every teacher is equipped to meet diverse needs, and every leader is supported to drive this vision forward.

But leadership can feel isolating—like you’re the only one championing inclusion while others nod along, seemingly stuck in old patterns. We know how frustrating it is to feel like the lone voice of change.

 

That’s why we created Leadership-Bytes. This professional development series is the result of decades of research, hands-on work in schools, and our passion for building inclusive systems. We’ve distilled our knowledge into actionable, bite-sized resources to empower leaders like you.

You’re not alone in this journey. Together, we can equip you with the tools, strategies, and mindset to confidently lead your district toward inclusion.

The Challenges You Face

Does this sound familiar?
You’ve spent countless hours trying to move the needle toward inclusion, but progress feels slow—and lonely.

You’ve hosted training sessions, only to hear the same questions or resistance:
“How is this supposed to work in my school?”
“Won’t this disrupt students who are already excelling?”

You’ve carefully crafted presentations, only to watch them land with a thud. You’ve emailed plans and vision statements, only to see no follow-through. And you’ve been told, more times than you can count, that inclusion is too much work, too complicated, or too risky.

Despite your best efforts, outdated practices persist. Resource rooms and self-contained classrooms continue to grow. Staff seem stuck in old habits. And the most vulnerable students—the ones who need inclusive practices the most—are still being left behind.

It’s exhausting.

  • Unite your leadership team around a shared, actionable vision of inclusion?
  • Equip them with strategies they can apply immediately?
  • Build a district-wide culture where every leader is ready to champion inclusive practices?

 There is a way.

Imagine a Leadership Team United in Inclusion

Picture this:

You step into a school where every leader speaks the same language of inclusion. They’re not just nodding politely in meetings—they’re actively driving change.

Walk through classrooms where:

  • Students with and without disabilities learn side by side, thriving academically and socially.
  • Staff collaborate seamlessly, drawing on shared strategies for supporting every learner.
  • Resource rooms and self-contained spaces are replaced by classrooms buzzing with collaboration, creativity, and growth.

Feel the shift:

  • Leaders confidently address resistance, dismantling outdated mindsets and barriers.
  • Parents trust the system, knowing their children are valued and included.
  • Your inbox is no longer filled with requests for quick fixes—it’s filled with gratitude from colleagues and families.

This isn’t just a dream. It’s a reality waiting to happen.

Leadership-Bytes is your roadmap to this transformation—empowering you and your leadership team to create schools where every student belongs, every teacher feels supported, and every leader knows how to drive inclusive change.
