Fort Worth ISD Under New Leadership | Texas News

Fort Worth ISD is under new state leadership after the Texas Education Agency took over, appointing Dr. Peter Licata as superintendent to steer the district through a critical turnaround. He’s sharing updates on enrollment, staffing, bus operations, and campus upgrades — while applauding students and educators pushing forward. With 19 campuses flagged for urgent improvement under the ELEVATE initiative, pressure is high — but early data shows promise: grades are rising, especially at previously struggling schools, and fewer campuses now carry failing ratings compared to before the takeover. The numbers tell a story of progress, even if the road ahead remains challenging. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
