flag Texas took over Fort Worth ISD over low test scores, replacing elected officials with state appointees despite plans to end the exam.

flag The Texas state government took over Fort Worth Independent School District in 2025, citing low STAAR test scores despite plans to phase out the exam. flag State officials justified the move, which replaced elected leaders with a state-appointed board, by pointing to years of underperformance, including only 34% of students at grade level. flag Critics argue the decision relied on a flawed test system widely criticized for inaccurately measuring student learning and creating undue pressure. flag The takeover has sparked debate over the use of standardized testing in school accountability and the limits of state intervention, with concerns about fairness and local control.
