Overview: The Fort Worth Independent School Board meeting was marked by discussions on improving educational outcomes through strategic initiatives, including the Accelerating Campus Excellence (ACE) model, which aims to recruit highly qualified educators for underperforming schools. The board approved a compensation plan to bring in top-tier teachers and administrators to six campuses identified as needing substantial improvement. This initiative is part of a wider effort to address long-standing educational challenges within the district, including student performance disparities and resource inequities.
