SESSION OVERVIEW
Sustainability is the Goal: Leading and Implementing Complex Change
With a charge to adopt, implement, and sustain MTSS systems in all 42 elementary schools, a district leadership team set about to assess organizational readiness and the knowledge, will, and skill of our leaders. This team developed a multi-year action plan to create a data-based culture and commitment to continuous improvement. In year two of implementation, enthusiasm for this effort has remained constant and early data indicators are encouraging.

Equity and Implementation
The goal of implementation science is to bring together research and practice in ways that improve outcomes for students. For this to happen, school leaders and implementers must work together to embrace diverse experiences and perspectives that impact implementation. A commitment to equity must be at the heart of all implementation cycles.
Equity is an issue at the forefront in education, and in society. How do we address equity and produce real and lasting change ?
When attention to culture, history, values, and needs of the community are integrated and inform intelligent adaptations of evidence-based programs and practices we begin to see implementation as not only a means to closing the achievement gap but a vehicle for closing the equity gap.
