Why have Houston ISD’s special education complaints increased despite better compliance?
Elizabeth Hornbeck watched her daughter struggle for years before she finally filed a special education complaint against Houston ISD. As a first-grader, her daughter Alex, who is diagnosed with ADHD, dysgraphia and dyslexia, often came home from school crying. In second grade, Alex had three teachers, including a two-month substitute and new teacher with little special education experience.

TexasISD.com was the brainchild of Joe F. Smith. Joe retired early from a successful career as Superintendent of Schools for Hudson ISD, deep in the Piney Woods of East Texas. Due to a long battle with Post-Polio Syndrome the doctor made him hang it up and rest for six months. Never being the kind of person to sit still and also not being the person to listen to his doctor, Joe logged lengthy sessions in front of his PC researching school issues, reading papers and corresponding with his friends and colleagues in the education business.
