Ballinger ISD assists in providing for the special education of children who have a disability.  Children with physical disabilities including vision and hearing problems, mental perceptual, speech, language, social and/or emotional disabilities may be eligible for the program.  Programs are available for children ages 0-21.

Early education can be critical because of the amount of learning that takes place in the preschool years.

The preschool program for children with disabilities provides services for children ages 3-5.  Early Childhood Intervention provides services for children ages birth-2.

If you are aware of a child suspected of having a disability who lives in the Ballinger school district, please contact Ballinger ISD for information about screening and evaluation services at no cost.  The goal of Ballinger ISD is to identify children with disabilities living in the district: all children who qualify for special education services have a right to a free appropriate public education.
