Dyslexia Services

Texas law mandates and structures the identification and instruction of students with dyslexia and related disorders. The RFISD Dyslexia Plan is designed to meet or exceed the expectations detailed in The Dyslexia Handbook - Revised 2021, approved by the State Board of Education and published by the Texas Education Agency. The plan ensures that students with dyslexia are appropriately identified and served through individualized, intensive, and multi-sensory methods as appropriate. RFISD provides this instruction using an Orton-Gillingham approach with the program Reading By Design.  All teachers providing this instruction are specially trained to provide this instruction K-12.
