TEA Information
The TEA Strategic Action outlined 10 new statewide networks beginning with the 2019-2020 school year. TEA is inviting stakeholders to provide suggestions and ideas about these new networks. Please visit TEA's website to view informative videos about the networks and complete surveys giving your input about the new statewide networks. The videos and surveys for each statewide project are under the Input and Feedback heading on the page.
The videos provide an overview of the 10 statewide networks outlined in the Special Education Strategic Plan. Each video is approximately five minutes long and provides a brief explanation of the purpose of the respective network, the needs the network will address, and the potential products and services that may result from the network.
