In addition to providing special education support, TES also will work as a consultant with general education teachers on things like differentiated instruction, accommodations for individual students and developing lesson plans for their students with special needs. More recently, it has branched into consulting with schools on general education at large, including Title I services for disadvantaged children, in the belief that whatever strengthens a school district overall is good for all its students. "Our mantra is: A special education student is a general education student first," Porter said. "Let's stop labeling kids."
