MacArthur High TB Testing Alert | Texas News

Tuberculosis exposure may have occurred at MacArthur High School in Irving, Texas, during the 2024-2025 school year — prompting Dallas County Health officials to investigate. While not an outbreak, the district is urging juniors and seniors (10th–12th graders) to get tested for TB as a precaution, since the disease can linger without symptoms. Testing is voluntary, recommended by the school, not mandated by state or county health departments. Officials are still determining when and where exposure might have happened, but early testing helps protect students returning next year. Stay tuned for updates from Irving ISD.
