I have had experience with both Plano and Northwest ISD's special ed departments. Both are incredible. The entire staff at the school was supportive both encouraged and valued my input. Yes, there are going to be budget cuts throughout most TX schools -- but my kids are now in Northwest ISD, and they are making a real effort to make budget cuts in areas that are not student-related (busing, admin, etc.). I think that as long as a parent stays involved as their child's biggest advocate - the better the child's experience in the school's spec ed system.
