Parents are protesting as district leaders grapple with a $180 million budget shortfall and a failed nonprofit takeover attempt. With August’s ratings looming, the TEA could step in to replace school boards or even shut down campuses. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
