From Policy to Practice: Bridging the Gaps in Special Education – Jill Dunn

How do we build school systems that serve the whole child—not just their paperwork?

Jill Dunn, Coordinator of Tiered Supports at Rochester Public Schools, brings a social worker’s heart and a behavior analyst’s precision to one of education’s most urgent challenges: equity in literacy.

In this conversation, Jill reveals why she calls literacy a social justice issue, how MTSS can humanize education, and what happens when we finally start aligning systems to student needs. From special ed settings to district-wide reform, you’ll hear why Jill’s story is a masterclass in meaningful, collaborative leadership.

This episode is for school leaders who are done with band-aids—and ready to build structures that last.
