HB 3328 Texas House · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to the approval of purchases under the supplemental special education services and instructional materials program by a public school student's admission, review, and dismissal committee.

HB 3328 requires public school special education admission, review, and dismissal (ARD) committees to hold a meeting with a student's parent before approving supplemental special education services or instructional materials for funding under the program. It directly affects students with special education needs, their parents, and school districts by mandating parental involvement in purchasing decisions before money is assigned to a student's account. Key provisions include the committee's obligation to determine and approve specific services/materials during the meeting and to provide parents and agencies with a written list of approved items. The bill applies starting the 2025-2026 school year.
