AISD on Edge as Two Schools Fail Again | Texas News

Austin ISD teeters on the brink of state takeover after two middle schools hit their fifth straight failing grades, putting the entire district at risk of losing its elected school board. But amid the crisis, there’s progress: Dobie Middle improved to a D, and 35 schools across the district saw gains. Superintendent Matias Segura credits tough decisions and resource reallocation for turning things around—now twice as many A/B-rated schools exist compared to D/F-rated ones. Preliminary ratings allow for appeals before final scores in December, and Segura remains confident systemic changes are driving long-term success. The Texas Education Agency will make the final call, but AISD is pushing forward with momentum. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
