Could Beaumont suffer the same fate as La Marque?

A lot of you guys were happy that TEA took over BISD...and as you can see it hasn't changed anything as I said it wouldn't. 

1. They chopped off the head of the snake and others. 

2. It has only been just over a year. What kind of results were they supposed to have in something that took years to create?  

I am assuming that you would have a coach take over a perennial losing team, keep most of the same players and coaches and win the state championship the first year.

Since TEA has taken over the school's in BISD have gotten worse you're missing the point.

The whole thing has been spiraling in a whirlpool down the toilet for a long time. What has the TEA done that has made it worse? 

With all the scams discovered (such as changing grades) and the people indicted, convicted and sentenced to prison from the former administration, please name all the bad things done by the TEA. 

Again, you want then in a little over a year to correct years of corruption. I am sure they aren't perfect but I fail to see where it has gotten worse. Since you appear to have such inside information on all these atrocities committed by the TEA, please enlighten us with their faux pas and how much better the previous felons were.

The commissioner of TEA just released a statement of support for the BISD board of managers.  Also, the change of accreditation is a result of financial decencies that occurred before they took over.  I'm just curious: do you feel that the growing amount of thieves that are being convicted for stealing millions of dollars from students and taxpayers is a good thing?  Or should they have been allowed to continue stealing from the district?  Because as far as I can tell, things have changed considerably since the BOM took over, with the biggest change being that high ranking employees are no longer using stolen BISD funds as a source of supplemental income.

BISD is 1 of 18 school districts in the State of Texas out of around 1200 to be put on Accredited-Warned status

As a result of financial issues that occurred before the BOM was installed.  BISD has the support of the president of the TEA.

That woman going to court now says she "only" embezzled this amount.....not that amount. Give me a break.

Yes, what I understood was she said, "I only took a $150,000", which had me in a state of disbelief.  It's an indication of the mind numbing amount that was stolen when "only $150,000" come out together.

One has to wonder what made it so easy for all these criminals to embezzle money away from the kids. WB was complaining that they needed a new weight room. Couldn't afford it since these people were building their fine homes and taking trips. What sorry individuals they truly are, but let's start measuring their criminality by how much they embezzled........REALLY? Guilty is guilty, not by how much.
