Richardson Families and Richardson ISD: Where ODD Coaching Fits

What Richardson ISD publishes about requesting school supports, and how coaching runs alongside them.

Section 504 requests

Richardson ISD tells families to contact the student's counselor or campus administrator about Section 504 and lists a District Section 504 and ADA Designee for further questions.

Special education referrals

For an enrolled student, the district says to contact the campus administrator to request a special education evaluation; anyone, including a parent, doctor, or teacher, can start the Child Find process, and a committee of the parent and school staff decides whether an evaluation is needed.

Testing season in Texas

TEA's 2026–2027 testing calendar places the spring STAAR windows for grades 3–8 in April 2027.
