TL;DR

The Texas Education Agency will replace the superintendent and board of education trustees of the Houston Independent School District with a new board appointed by the state Commissioner of Education under a state law that allows the state to remove the board of districts with schools that are failing to meet certain state standards. The intervention is expected to take place in the next few months.
