Common Questions from Conroe ISD Families
What if I suspect my child has a learning disability?
Contact your child's teacher or the campus administration team to discuss your concerns. They can help you navigate the process of requesting an evaluation to determine if your child qualifies for special education services. Early intervention is key to supporting your child's academic success.
How do I know what specific supports my child will receive?
Your child's Individualized Education Program (IEP), developed during the ARD meeting, will outline the specific supports and services they will receive. This document is created collaboratively with the ARD committee, including parents, teachers, and other relevant professionals. It will detail accommodations, modifications, and goals tailored to your child's needs.
What if I disagree with the ARD committee's decisions?
You have the right to disagree with the ARD committee's decisions. You can request another ARD meeting to further discuss your concerns. Additionally, you have the right to pursue mediation or file a complaint with the Texas Education Agency if you believe your child's rights are being violated.
Practical Tip for Parents
Conroe ISD is a large district with over 72,000 students. Navigating a large district can feel overwhelming. However, each campus has a dedicated special education coordinator. This individual is your primary point of contact for all special education-related matters. Start with the campus coordinator before escalating concerns to the district office. They can provide valuable support and guidance specific to your child's school.
