    Children in Private or Home or School (All Ages): Children who are eligible for special education and attend private or home schools are not entitled to all of the services they would receive if they were in public school; however, certain services are available. To be eligible for special education services the child: must be evaluated; must meet criteria for an educational disability condition; must need special education. The services available to eligible children in private and home schools are called proportionate share services. The proportionate share services offered during a given year depend on the most “in-demand” need at that time. Evaluations for children in private or home school are typically conducted by the school district in which the private or home school is located. If your child has been or might be eligible for special education and your child attends a private or home school within the boundaries of Lake Dallas ISD, please contact: Donnetta Walker, Administrative Assistant, 940-497-1409, donnetta@ldisd.net.
