Black-majority schools in Texas receive more Fs than A ratings, leaving parents with tough choices

In Texas, schools with a majority Black student population tend to receive more failing grades than high ratings. This has led to difficult decisions for some parents. A family in Fort Bend ISD chose not to send their child to a nearby F-rated school, opting instead for a new middle school with specialized programs.

Further details about the challenges faced by parents and students in this situation are available from the Lake Conroe Area News and The Texas Tribune.
