For students who need specific dyslexia testing, services and/or accommodations, PISD provides a teacher trained in both assessment and dyslexia services with students and staff.
The Texas Transition and Employment Guide provides youth, young adults, parents, and professionals with secondary transition resources to facilitate a young person's progress towards post-secondary goals to education, employment, and community living. This guide will continually be updated. For more information on the Texas Transition and Employment Guide click here.
