Spruce Fought DISD And DISD Won:

For now at least.

Last-ditch effort to keep students at Dallas' Spruce High fails

Reading some of the comments left on the article...we can really see how many people even paid attention to what was happening to Spruce. Over and over again we said that Spruce has been forgotten...well...those comments serve a proof.

Read the application for an injunction filed by Spruce parents (on behalf of their children) and community members HERE

Read DISD's response HERE

DISD's response reads like a New York Times Best Seller for Fiction.

In the mean time...The Wall Street Journal published an article on DISD's new grading policy. In case you haven't heard...it's more of the "ignore the real problems, implement a quick fix, and push students through the system" formula that DISD is so good at. Read the Journal article HERE
