Getting Ready for a Katy ISD ARD Meeting

If your child already gets speech therapy at school, or you've asked Katy ISD for an evaluation, the next step is an ARD meeting. ARD stands for Admission, Review and Dismissal. It's where you and the school team decide on eligibility, goals and services.

Sherry knows how ARD meetings run from the school side. Before your meeting, she can:

  • Go through the school's evaluation report with you and explain the scores in plain language

  • Help you list your concerns and questions so nothing gets missed

  • Suggest speech and language goals worth asking about

  • Share progress from private speech therapy, with your written permission

School Speech Therapy and Private Therapy in Katy

School speech therapy focuses on what your child needs to take part in class. Private sessions add practice time and can work on goals the school doesn't cover. Many Katy families use both.
