Description

Texas ranchers may be holding back on reporting screwworm infestations out of fear of the federal government's response as Robin Giles has been working the 13-thousand-acre hillingdon ranch in the hill country for 70 years that’s been in his family for over 130 years saying he's seen it all, including screwworms, the city of Austin is looking for a contractor to help out with the task of taking an inventory of the city's trees as city leaders say they want to follow the lead of other cities like Dallas, Denton, and Chicago who have all completed tree inventories, and the Texas education agency today is set to release the results of the STAAR test for grades 3 through 8. and the results could be very impactful for the Austin school district as Dobie, Webb, and Burnet middle schools have all failed to meet basic academic standards for four straight years and the STAAR test results factor largely into the T-E-A's overall accountability ratings for schools, and Austin ISD superintendent Matias Segura has been sounding the alarm that a fifth failing grade for any of those schools could cost them their local control.
