I am not sure about good public school districts for special needs children, but the Notre Dame Special School, which is run by the Catholic diocese, is a very very good program for special needs students. I know several students who have attended the school and they all love it, and it has prepared them for things like basic jobs in the workforce, as well as reading and computer skills for those whose abilities allow. I also know a couple of special ed teachers in the Dallas school district, both of whom have said that Notre Dame is a "dream job" for a special needs teacher.

It's a private school, and there is a tuition fee I believe I'm not sure what the fee is. But it does have an excellenct reputation and it's very well supported among the Catholic and wider community in Dallas.
