Operating Procedures Online© is designed to provide you with a clear, easy to follow reference to the Federal regulations, your corresponding State rules and most importantly, a sample of local operating guidelines you may edit, customize and use to implement the Federal and State requirements. Your sample of local implementation of the federal and state rules (local operating guidelines) are easily apparent in blue italics.

The original Texas Operating Procedures© was developed during the 1995-96 school year. The document has undergone numerous revisions and updates to keep up with state and federal laws.

Over 75% of the special education programs in the State of Texas have purchased these Operating Procedures©, including several Education Service Centers.

Thanks to input from the numerous Special Education Directors, the Operating Procedures© continue to improve. The State of Texas requires that School Board approved Policy is linked to the Texas Legal Framework procedures. You are now required to link your Operating Procedures©. Our clients are provided step by step assistance on this task.

Operating Procedures Online© is excited to announce new improvements!

  1. You now get two for the price of one! Your subscription includes free companion documents that will take your customized local procedures and automatically insert them into a format that is organized in exact alignment with the Legal Framework.
  2. We will continue to update and offer you the full Operating Procedures Online© document and format that we have offered and updated for these many years. This includes the Federal Regulations, Texas Rules/Regs, and your local operating procedures and sample procedures. As always, any edits you choose to make are preserved and we will not change.
  3. Our service has been used in Texas for many years prior to going online. Our partnership provides you with access to 3 former special education directors for questions, assistance, and technology technical assistance, all at NO EXTRA CHARGE. We use “Email Alerts” to keep you informed of changes or updates throughout the year. We continue to maintain and update the OPO based on Texas legislative sessions.
