What happens after a referral is made?

- A committee comprised of parent/guardian and school personnel with determining if an assessment is needed. This same group may develop an assessment plan designed to evaluate areas of concern.
- An evaluation will be conducted by the appropriate Farmersville ISD personnel at no charge to the family.
