Candid Conversation: How do we, again, turn around Fort Worth ISD?

Mayor Mattie Parker and 40 other community leaders have described the district’s current state as “unacceptable,” urging a turnaround plan to bring lasting change. On Dec. 3, our panel of leaders and experts will examine what a successful plan might look like, why it’s different from past efforts and what’s already being done to make it happen.
