Superintendent Mike Miles revealed on Friday a list of 19 campuses that voluntarily adopted the controversial New Education System designation, expanding NES within the district even further.
The Houston Independent School District is inching closer to Superintendent Mike Miles' goal of designating 150 campuses as New Education System schools by 2026-2027.
"We put the data together. I'm very confident in that data, and that's why we're using that data, and that's why we're using it for the schools," Miles said. "At the end of the day, there is no real accountability. HISD, Miles - they've been placed here by the state. They don't answer to the community. They don't answer to the voters in Houston, so it's extremely frustrating," Lumbea said. "And at the end of the day, us parents know what's best for our kids."
