SB 2751 Texas Senate · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to the inspection of residential and day placement facilities for special education students.

SB 2751 requires inspections of residential and day placement facilities that provide services to students with disabilities under school district contracts. It mandates that inspections verify whether educational services align with medical standards and best practices for each student's disability, and whether facility staff have completed crisis prevention training. The law applies to all such facilities starting with the 2025-2026 school year. This directly affects students with disabilities in these facilities, the school districts contracting with them, and the agencies conducting inspections.
