Houston ISD Continues to Mislead Parents
Activist parents in Houston ISD rightly celebrated when the HISD Board of Trustees became the first district (to our knowledge) to write Opt Out procedures into their board policies. Further, the parents succeeded in convincing the board to suspend, at least for this year, the HISD specific policy which made STAAR passage a promotion standard for all pre-secondary grades 3-8.
However, apparently word of this hasn’t filtered through the district. In a recent blog post, one Houston dad takes a look at continuing misleading and intimidating information coming from HISD schools.
