When Richardson ISD Accommodations Fall Short

Richardson ISD is a strong district with dedicated teachers. But for students with ADHD or dyslexia, the gap between intelligence and classroom performance grows wider each year. Accommodations help at the margins but do not change the fundamental experience.

At Fairhill, every classroom was designed for students with learning differences. A 7:1 ratio means teachers catch struggles in real time. Executive function skills are taught directly. Faculty average 12-15 years of tenure with 70% holding advanced degrees.
