The State Board of Education Committee of Instruction met on 9/2/21. They approved that the revisions to the Dyslexia Manual be accepted and implemented immediately with minor approved changes in language. These changes go into effect 20 days after publication of the Manual in the Texas Registry. This will probably be the end of next month.
This does move Dyslexia Assessment into the FIE process. Additional clarification will be coming from TEA. Technical Assistance is being developed.
Here are some links dealing with the below post. Requests have been made to see were this is in writing. The links below deal with the agenda from the meeting and the video of the meeting that shows the passage of the proposal. The draft of the new manual is accessible with these links, but, again, there were minor changes made at the meeting that have not been incorporated yet.
