When the TEA takes over, it won't be because of any of the schools being kept open or any boundaries being preserved for another year, it'll be because of already failing schools, and most important of all, the legislature and TEA have set school districts up to fail and have changed criteria to hasten that, because the legislature is sitting on $32 billion that could help a lot of school districts, and because they are all in on wrecking public education. There's already 5 school districts in line to be taken over.
We can rage about AISD management all we want, but at the end of the day, the state takes $820 million from AISD's budget, and the state wants to take over the largest districts, and they want to do away with a lot of programs because some fucking Christian nutcases want it to happen, and the state refuses to spend the money to bolster education (remember 30-40 years ago when our state leaders cared about education and wanted us to compete with the top states in the nation?)
When the legislators and state leaders and rich Christian nationalists tell you they oppose public education, and they actively work towards that goal, and that they want to create more charter schools in place of public schools, listen to them.
We have the money to fix all of the districts, but the state has decided against that.
