News and Updates

HB 2598 Signed Into Law!

Great news! Governor Abbott has now signed HB 2598 into law. This means that we are officially no longer LSSPs beginning September 1, as the title will change to school psychologist in the state occupation and education codes. See the FAQ document linked here for a breakdown of what this change means for you as a Texas school psychologist! This will be great to share with your SPED directors, HR Department and other hiring staff.
