Hudson ISD board approves request for remote homebound waiver for a special education student
Summary
Trustees voted unanimously to request a Remote Homebound Waiver for a special education student after Director of Special Services Kelly Phillips explained the medical justification.
Kelly Phillips, Director of Special Services, explained the medical basis for requesting remote homebound services for a special education student. After Phillips' explanation, Dr. Shawn Penn moved, seconded by Mr. Chris Smith, to approve requesting a Remote Homebound Waiver as submitted; the motion carried 7-0.
Board members treated the item as a student-specific, medically based request rather than a general policy change. The district did not provide medical details in the public minutes; the action authorizes staff to pursue the waiver with the appropriate state agency.
