As part of a state takeover plan, libraries in underperforming schools are becoming spaces for disruptive students to watch lessons on computers.

    Houston resident, lots of strong opinions on this.

    First, this happened because schools have been underperforming for some time. The line in sand was crossed and the state decided to step in. Secondly, from my understanding with radio interviews and other online sources, they repurpose the library to redirect students who cause distractions in class. If you disrupt in the classroom, you join an isolated zoom session from the old library.

    I’m not suggesting this approach will work, just letting everyone know the thought process.
