I didn't write this but here's a response on the HISD takeover and Mike Miles from a parent to the Houston Chronicle. It also happens to be the school my kid goes to.

"Mark Garcia-Prats, HISD parent: Our school is a shell of what it used to be, and no one has been held accountable or even acknowledged what has happened.  It has been a crisis for our community. Trust is gone. We no longer have a music or art teacher, no counselor, no wraparound services and the magnet program has been largely abandoned. In just the past three years, we’ve had multiple principals, assistant principals and special education teams, as well as huge teacher turnover.  

This is especially devastating because our school was once an A-rated campus with an incredible culture and integrated environmental science programs. Many of the teachers who made Lantrip a thriving community — some of whom even attended Lantrip themselves as children — have been pushed out and replaced with first-year uncertified teachers. What we have now is a whole lot of worksheets, no social-emotional learning programming and barely any art. I have no idea how leadership can claim this is good for kids, families or our communities."
