Family Resources

Our children have needs that change over time as they get older.  Parents often come to the school asking for suggestions or resources for services to support them in the important job of parenting.  KISD has collected a variety of resources to help families if the need arises.  KISD does not endorse any of these resources, rather is providing a list for families who may be seeking help in any of the following areas.  We suggest asking plenty of questions of any entity you may wish to call about any potential costs associated with their services as this is the sole responsibility of the parent and not the school district.
