Down Syndrome Toolkit

A Guide for Supporting Students with Down Syndrome

The aim of this toolkit is to provide educators, school staff, and administration tools and information gathered on best practices for supporting students with Down Syndrome in school communities. The toolkit should enable readers to identify best practices to implement in their classrooms and campuses to best address the unique learning profile of students with Down Syndrome.
