Parents worry that, by splitting up the kids, they will lose resources and their community: "We chose to be a part of the community, because this is lonely, doing this alone."Outrage boiled over at an Houston Independent School District meeting Friday morning, as parents blasted district leaders for a plan to move special education students to different schools.
"People don't realize, when it's your child, the emotions just come out," parent Jose Sanchez explained. "I don't care how hard you are, your emotions come up because you care about your kids so much." They explained they're doing so to comply with the state's education standards requiring special needs students to mix with other students.
District officials say they are moving forward with the plan, under the direction of the TEA, but they are scheduling a follow up meeting with parents.

Parents angry at HISD for planning to move special education students to home schools'Y'all do not listen. Y'all don't understand. And y'all have no compassion, nor do you have a heart,' one parent said. This, this foolishness right here is why I left my home, my friends and my family behind in Houston and moved to Minnesota so that my three autistic children could have a better education and quality of life. I encourage other parents who have kids in SPED in HISD to LEAVE! No shit parents were upset they weren’t consulted before the decision was made.🤦🏻♀️ Do better HISD. Rubynekomimi
