ARD Committee Meetings, Understanding Parent Rights, New to Special Education, New to Texas
A practical guide with clear steps to help parents prepare for, join, and follow up on ARD meetings to support their child’s education.
Learn about the rights parents have in special education and how those rights protect students. Parents have the right to take part in meetings, review educational records, and agree or disagree with decisions about their child’s services. Schools must share information that explains these rights and the special education process. Knowing their rights helps parents work with the school and support their child’s success in school and beyond.
