How to Effectively Contact Lewisville ISD Special Education Staff
Communicating effectively with Lewisville ISD special education staff is crucial for your child's success. Keep in mind that teachers and staff are often busiest during the school day. The best times to contact them are typically before or after school hours, or during their designated planning periods. Check your teacher’s syllabus or contact the front office for planning period times.
Email is often the most efficient way to initially reach staff, allowing them to review your concerns and gather information before responding. When emailing, be clear and concise in your subject line (e.g., "IEP Question for [Child's Name]"). In your first message, briefly explain your concern and what you hope to achieve. For example: "My child, [Child's Name], is struggling with [specific skill] in math. Could we schedule a time to discuss strategies?" Phone calls can be helpful for more complex issues or urgent matters, but it’s always a good practice to follow up any phone conversation with a written summary via email for your records.
Important Tip: Always follow up a phone call with an email summarizing the conversation and any agreed-upon actions. This creates a written record of your communication.
What to Do If You Can't Reach Anyone
If you're having trouble reaching someone in Lewisville ISD's special education department, it's important to escalate your concerns systematically. Here's a suggested process:
- Step 1: Contact your child's special education teacher.
- Step 2: If you don't receive a response within a reasonable timeframe (e.g., 2 business days), contact the campus Special Education Coordinator.
- Step 3: If you still haven't received a satisfactory response, contact the Lewisville ISD Special Education Director at the district level. Their contact information should be available on the Lewisville ISD website.
- Step 4: If you believe Lewisville ISD is not fulfilling its legal obligations under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), you have the right to file a complaint with the Texas Education Agency (TEA). Refer to Texas Education Code Chapter 29 for specific special education regulations in Texas.
