Special Education
The Texas City Independent School District Special Education services are provided to enhance appropriate educational opportunities for students with disabilities. With high expectations for success, students with disabilities are prepared to become life-long learners and contributing members of the community.
TCISD provides special educational services to students with disabilities as provided in the Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act, 2004. The District has the duty to identify, refer, evaluate and if the child is eligible, provide a free, appropriate public education to students with disabilities.
For additional information about the rights of parents of eligible children or for answers regarding special education or Section 504, please contact the Director of Special Education at 409-916-0106, or by mail at 1700 Ninth Avenue North, Texas City, Texas 77590.
The Special Education department supports parent involvement at all levels. The special education facilitator at each campus can provide information regarding the ARD process, transfers, available resources, and the continuum of services found in TCISD. Parents are encouraged to call for information if questions or concerns arise.
