How to Effectively Contact Frisco ISD Special Education Staff
Building a positive relationship with your child's special education team in Frisco ISD is crucial for their success. Here's how to communicate effectively:
Best Times to Contact: Early morning or late afternoon, before or after school hours, are often good times to reach teachers and staff. Check the Frisco ISD website for specific staff contact information and potentially preferred communication methods.
Email vs. Phone: For initial contact, email is often preferred. It allows staff to gather information and respond thoughtfully. If you need to discuss something sensitive or complex, a phone call may be more appropriate, but schedule it in advance if possible.
What to Say in Your First Message: Be clear, concise, and respectful. State your child's name, grade, school, and the specific issue you're addressing. For example: "Dear [Teacher's Name], I'm writing to you regarding [Child's Name]'s progress in [Subject] and have some questions about the recent IEP goals."
Important Tip: Always follow up any phone conversation with an email summarizing the discussion and agreed-upon actions. This creates a written record and ensures everyone is on the same page.
What to Do If You Can't Reach Anyone
If you're having trouble getting a response from your child's teacher or other special education staff in Frisco ISD, here's a suggested escalation process:
- Step 1: Contact the teacher directly via email and phone.
- Step 2: If you don't receive a response within a reasonable timeframe (e.g., 2-3 business days), contact the campus Special Education Coordinator. Their contact information should be available on the Frisco ISD website.
- Step 3: If the Campus Coordinator is unresponsive, contact the Frisco ISD Special Education Director for the district.
- Step 4: As a last resort, you can file a complaint with the Texas Education Agency (TEA).
Remember that Texas Education Code Chapter 29 outlines the rights and responsibilities related to special education services in Texas. Familiarize yourself with this code to understand your rights.
Your Right to District Records

Public Information Act: You can also use the Texas Public Information Act (Texas Government Code, Chapter 552) to request information such as staff contact information or district policies. This act ensures transparency in government operations.
