"**Four Texas school districts at risk for state takeover after 2023 ratings released,**” Texas Tribune's **Sneha Dey **-- "At least four Texas school districts could be forced to shut down their chronically underperforming schools or submit to a takeover from the state, based on annual state ratings released Thursday morning.
The Texas Education Agency released its A-F grades for the 2022-23 school year, the first complete set in five years. Ratings had not been released due to court battles and pauses to the rating system during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Beaumont, Midland, Fort Worth and Wichita Falls school districts all have one or more campuses that failed state ratings for at least four years in a row, putting them at risk of bruising state penalties.
» [BECOME A PAID SUBSCRIBER: $7/mo]([link removed])
Of the 8,539 public schools evaluated in the state, 19.3% got an A. Another 33.6% got a B and 24.7% got a C. About one in five campuses failed to meet academic standards, with 14.8% earning a D and 7.6% earning an F.
Performance scores for schools and districts are determined based on three categories: how students perform on state tests and meet college and career readiness benchmarks; how students improve over time; and how well schools are educating their most disadvantaged students.
» [BECOME A PAID SUBSCRIBER: $70/yr]([link removed])
Overall grades declined for many campuses since the 2021-2022 school year. Half of the state’s campuses received A or B grades, a decline of about 20 percentage points from the previous school year. The state only released partial scores that year.
TEA Commissioner **Mike Morath** attributed that decline to a drop in academic growth as schools worked to recover from the pandemic.
Many school district leaders, meanwhile, have attributed the declines to stricter college and career readiness standards. For the first time, schools had to show that 88% of their graduating high school students were college or career-ready to get an A, up from the 60% benchmark in previous years. About 10,000 more students met the requirements to prove college and career readiness.
“We keep raising the bar so that Texas is a leader in preparing students for postsecondary success,” Morath said at a press roundtable.
The release of the A-F ratings comes after [legal battles]([link removed]) over changes to how schools are scored. More than 120 school districts sought to block the release of the 2023 ratings because they said TEA had not given them adequate notice before rolling out stricter college and career readiness benchmarks.
Earlier this month, an appeals court cleared TEA to make the 2023 A-F grades public, ruling that Morath did not overstep his authority when he changed the scoring metrics." [Texas Tribune]([link removed])

**Dennis Farris guest column**: "**Lives Are on The Line as Texas Lawmakers Debate Drone Ban,**” via The Hayride** **-- "I’ve lost too many friends in the line of duty. When lives are on the line, we must do everything in our power to ensure first responders have the best possible tools to protect themselves and the public. That’s why I must weigh in to oppose Texas lawmakers push to pass House Bill 41 – a well-intentioned but misguided piece of legislation that would force law enforcement and firefighters to abandon one of our most effective tools for saving lives: drones.
Drones have revolutionized emergency response. They can be deployed instantly, providing officers with real-time intelligence before they step into dangerous situations. In active shooter incidents, fires, search-and-rescue missions, and disaster recovery efforts, drones allow first responders to quickly and accurately assess threats, locate victims, and make high stakes decisions – without putting human lives at unnecessary risk.
I’ve seen it firsthand. When someone is lost in the wilderness or trapped under rubble, thermal imaging on drones has helped locate them when every second counts. When armed suspects flee into the night, drones offer aerial thermal imaging that keeps officers and civilians safe. Drones navigate environments that human responders can’t: collapsed buildings, chemical spills, raging floodwaters, and dangerous terrain.
Yet, instead of recognizing their life-saving value, HB41 would force police and fire departments to throw out these critical tools because they contain foreign-made parts. Why? There is concern foreign-made drones pose a security threat, but right now there is no specific evidence backing this fear. In fact, Congress already mandated a federal security study on these drones, set to be completed by December 2025. Texas legislators are rushing to ban them before the facts are even in. Legislators shouldn’t pass a ban with very real life-and-death consequences based on theoretical threats.
Law enforcement has been outspoken against this bill, and their main concern is the rapid timeline the bill imposes for stopping use and procurement of this technology. Departments would have no time to transition their drone programs and no good options for replacing their current drones. Right now, American manufacturers simply do not produce enough drones to replace the foreign-made models at the scale first responders require. Those that are available cost much more and often lack the capabilities law enforcement relies on – meaning agencies will either be forced to cut their drone programs entirely or spend astronomical sums on inferior equipment. It would be like telling people to throw out their iPhone and replace it with a $3,000 flip phone because the chip in their smartphone isn’t American-made.
This issue shouldn’t be about politics or splashy anti-China headlines. Officer safety is on the line. Texas has always stood by its first responders, ensuring we have the support needed to protect our communities. Restricting access to drones will make our work more dangerous, put officers and firefighters at unnecessary risk, and ultimately jeopardize the very communities we are sworn to protect.
We owe it to every first responder who has put their life on the line to ensure they have the tools they need to come home safely. HB41 is a step in the wrong direction. Let’s not let fear dictate policy when lives—both first responders’ and civilians’—are at stake.
