Register for the 2026 SPED Legal Summit

Thompson & Horton is hosting our annual Special Education Legal Summit in two locations this year! We are partnering with Region 20 ESC in San Antonio and Region 10 ESC in Richardson to host this year's summit.

Our Special Education Legal Summit provides a full day of legal insights, practical tools, and hands-on learning designed to help you solve the ever-evolving puzzle of special education law.

Morning sessions will cover hot topics in special education, including updates from the Commissioner, the courts, and evolving funding requirements. In the afternoon, attendees may choose between two tracks: one focused on special education issues for campus administrators and another focused on effective districtwide compliance strategies and procedures.
 
This Summit is Designed for
  •  District and Campus Administrators
  • Special Education and Section 504 Leaders
  • Special Education and Section 504 Compliance Staff
  • IEP Team/Section 504 Committee Leaders
  • School Attorneys & Legal Staff
