T.H. Rogers parents got a pause on the removal of special ed kids from the school, but they're not sure it's permanent.
Houston ISD Millard House II has just released a statement that the district is not going to remove the special education students from T.H. Rogers as it had planned. At least not now.
Parents at the school immediately objected saying they hadn't been consulted on this move and that their students, many with profound impairments, would not be well-served by being moved to regular schools in the district who are not equipped to handle their special needs."I am happy to share that HISD will not be moving forward with the transition of students in the PSI program at T.H. Rogers following a pause on the decision prior to the holiday break.
One parent Thursday said the reference to"in the future" in House's statement makes them think this is a temporary solution and there is no guarantee that the district will not try to move forward on its plan to make T.H. Rogers only a school for Gifted and Talented students . Originally the K-8 school also had a deaf student population but those children were removed last school year.
