Overview

• Superintendent Karen Molinar said selected campuses will receive extra resources and incentives, with teachers and administrators required to reapply for their positions while non-retained staff may move to other schools without job loss.
• The targeted list includes Morningside, Wedgwood and William James middle schools, along with Clifford Davis, West Handley, Western Hills Elementary and Western Hills Primary.
• Education Commissioner Mike Morath is poised to rule on Fort Worth ISD and Lake Worth ISD after years of poor performance, saying his options are either closing campuses or installing appointed boards of managers.
• Lake Worth ISD leaders report a unified curriculum, a consulting partnership led by former Dallas ISD superintendent Michael Hinojosa, a new superintendent, and curriculum changes intended to improve outcomes.
• Fort Worth ISD will brief the public on the plan Tuesday, and trustees will consider adopting the Bluebonnet Reading Language Arts curriculum later this school year as parents hold a town hall to plead for more time.
