State Intervention Looms Over Fort Worth ISD After School Closure Fails to Stop Accountability Clock.

Fort Worth ISD plans to appeal, pointing to district-wide improvements and a new academic strategy, but a final decision on possible leadership changes or further campus closures will come later this summer.
