Building a stronger future for all Austin ISD students

Dear Austin ISD Family, Today, we reached an important milestone in our work to build a stronger Austin ISD for every student. We’ve released the Data Rubric scores, which will guide our work around school consolidations and changes to boundaries, transfer policy and programming. This tool is the result of months of collaboration with our board of trustees and more than 15,000 community members. I am deeply grateful for the time and care so many of you have invested to help us get to this point.

Special Education Transition Fair

Join us to learn more about special education transition, including employment, education and training, independent living, and recreation and leisure. At this event you’ll hear from community agencies and organizations, as well as learn about special education transition services in Austin ISD, and the community.
