The Fort Worth Independent School District’s leadership is under fire after being criticized for not keeping up with the city’s growth.

Fort Worth ISD released estimated A-F ratings Sept. 10, though grades remain preliminary due to legal issues blocking the Texas Education Agency from releasing official ratings.

The Texas Education Agency is barred from releasing statewide A-F scores under a court order issued last month. Fort Worth ISD, like several other districts in the state, calculated its own anticipated accountability scores based on the state education agency’s scoring rubric.

Walnut Bend Independent School District has earned a top "A" rating “Superior Achievement” from the Texas School FIRST financial accountability system, achieving a perfect score of 100, the highest available.

Fort Worth ISD Superintendent Dr. Angelica Ramsey sat silent as frustrated parents, teachers and community members teed off on her performance during a specially called meeting Tuesday.

The Tuesday meeting comes three weeks after Fort Worth Mayor Mattie Parker and other local leaders sent a letter to school board members urging a turnaround in academic performance.
