Following allegations of abuse against special needs students on campus, Midland ISD school board members have voted to terminate the school's principal. Lubbock ISD is facing an investigation of its own after a lawsuit from parents of a three-year-old who say a former Lubbock teacher abused their child. The school voucher program recently approved by the state legislature has an official name: Texas Education Freedom Account. The program is set to begin in the 2026-27 school year.
