Jakeline Magaña2024-08-27Alicia worked with us to help our 5 year old receive the individualized IEP he was meant to have at school and made everything happen within one week of reaching out to her. Our son is high functioning ASD and had been placed in the wrong program in school due to a misunderstanding. The school mentioned they would try to get everything situated but wanted me to leave him to start the program until they could schedule an ARD meeting. Unfortunately I wasn't going to leave my son in school to attend a wrong program while they figured it out... The next day I reached out to Alicia and on that same day she reached out to the school and placed in the right classroom while his program was being sort out. A week later we attended the ARD meeting and we received everything in the program that he was supposed to have! We are very grateful for Alicia , without her I wouldn't of known how to navigate this situation. Not only was she in constant communication at all times, she is a very kind and understanding person. She always took her time listening to our needs. ❤️ I highly recommend her!

Alicia Tucker advocated for a student in the Conroe school district. Before hiring Alicia to advocate for the child, the parent went into ARD meetings and agreed to everything the school was recommending because she did not understand the laws and her rights pertaining to special education laws. After hiring Alicia, in the ARD meeting she was able to advocate for additional services and testing for the student which ultimately led to create a more appropriate IEP for this student. The parent was very grateful because she now feels her child has a better plan to ensure her success in the Conroe school system.
