Ensuring Access and Equity for All Learners

We believe every Buckaroo deserves access to rigorous instruction, high-quality materials, and the supports needed to succeed. Our district focuses on closing achievement gaps, expanding learning opportunities, and creating inclusive environments where all students thrive.

The Special Education team exists to support the Freer ISD mission of ensuring children who receive special education services are provided with access to a Free and Appropriate Public Education in the Least Restrictive Environment.

Our goal is to provide students a quality education that enables them to achieve their potential and participate fully in future social, economic, and educational opportunities.

Freer ISD provides dyslexia screening, identification, and support aligned with the Texas Dyslexia Handbook. Students may receive services under Section 504 or Special Education, depending on individual need.

Section 504 is a federal civil rights law that ensures students with disabilities have equal access to education. If a student has a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits a major life activity, they may qualify for accommodations that support academic success.

Freer ISD provides services for gifted and talented students who demonstrate high levels of intellectual, creative, or academic ability. The district’s G/T program offers differentiated instruction and enrichment opportunities that challenge students to think critically, solve problems, and pursue areas of personal interest.

The Texas Performance Standards Project (TPSP) provides TEKS-based performance tasks and assessments that guide advanced learning experiences from kindergarten through grade 12. These projects encourage independent research, creativity, and real-world application of knowledge while allowing students to explore topics aligned to their strengths and passions.

Freer ISD’s G/T program follows the Texas State Plan for the Education of Gifted/Talented Students and ensures equitable access to identification, services, and evaluation for all eligible students.

Parents and guardians are encouraged to contact the Academics Department for nomination information, program details, or TPSP resources.
