The Future of Houston's Largest School District: What You Need to Know.

Texas education officials have taken control of Houston ISD, the state's largest district, citing legal grounds for the intervention. The takeover will last at least two years, during which time the TEA will hire new trustees and a new superintendent, stripping oversight from the current board and top administrator. The move has been met with mixed reactions, with some calling it a necessary change to improve the district, while others have labeled it "outrageous" and "hostile." The takeover is part of Governor Greg Abbott's push for education reform in Texas.
