Dyslexia

Brownsville Independent School District strives to have an exemplary dyslexia program for students enrolled in grades K – 12.   Through a Response to Intervention  process, BISD monitors students on a regular basis utilizing formal and informal observations, student data and other assessments including but not limited to the TPRI, Tejas Lee, and/or written evidence of Tier II progress monitoring (curriculum based monitoring).

The mission of the Brownsville Independent School District Dyslexia Department is to provide all eligible students with dyslexia with the multi-sensory and phonological awareness skills necessary to compensate for deficiencies in the areas of reading, writing, and spelling in order to nurture a strong self-esteem and to provide opportunities for them to develop their talents.
