Lumberton Independent School District (LISD) aligns its local operating procedures and board policies with the federal and state mandates outlined in the Texas Legal Framework for the Child-Centered Special Education Process.
To maintain strict alignment with evolving state and federal regulations, Lumberton ISD links its local board-adopted policies (Legal and Local) and campus operating procedures directly to the Texas Legal Framework Portal. These frameworks dictate our child-centered processes across all critical areas.
