ARD Process

What is the ARD Process?

The Admission, Review, and Dismissal (ARD) meeting is a formal process conducted to determine a student's eligibility for special education services. This meeting is held for students who may have a recognized disability and require specialized educational support.

An ARD meeting is convened annually to review and update the student’s Individualized Education Program (IEP), ensuring appropriate educational and related services are in place to support their needs.

Parents have the right to request an ARD meeting at any time by contacting the Campus Administrator.

Student Records

Alvin ISD uses an online program called Frontline to manage Special Education and Section 504 student records.  You must contact your campus administrator or child's case manager to receive a copy of your student's records via the Frontline system.

After Graduation, you may request your child's records by completing the Request of Records form and attaching a picture of your Photo ID with the request. Email the completed documents to Josie Garcia.
