The Texas Education Agency announced on Friday the number of applications that were received during their Board of Managers application and selection process following the announcement of the takeover of Houston ISD.
TEA officials said the TEA Commissioner's goal is to select nine individuals from the applicant pool to serve as members of the Board of Managers.
The Board of Manager is expected to be selected on or after June 1. Until a Board of Managers is appointed on or after June 1, Houston ISD will continue to be governed by the elected Board of Trustees. Once appointed, the Board of Managers will work in collaboration with the new superintendent to ensure that Houston ISD educators and staff have the necessary tools and resources at their disposal to facilitate student success in the classroom and beyond.
