[en español aqui] Here's a 10-slide story that summarizes how Texas law and the Texas Education Code were manipulated to orchestrate the Houston ISD takeover, the largest school district in Texas. The state takeover of Houston ISD is not really about helping our schoolchildren at all. It is part of a broader attack on public education  across the country. 

In Texas, the takeover was orchestrated by the Republican-led Texas state government working hand in hand with individuals on both sides of the aisle. Their harmful reform agenda promotes weaponizing teacher and school accountability almost entirely based on high-stakes testing at the expense of our children, teachers and schools.
