US DEA: TEXAS SPECIAL ED ‘STILL NEEDS HELP’
For the fourth year in a row, federal education officials have found Texas “needs assistance” providing special education services required by law.
The U.S. Department of Education has given the state the same rating under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act it’s received every year since 2016.
The rating comes as state officials continue to claim they’ve pushed to improve access to special education services since it was revealed Texas illegally capped how many children should get them.
The Texas Education Agency says it’s not satisfied with the designation.
The rating came a month after the agency told federal officials it could not promise students with disabilities would receive required services until June 2020.
