Some Webb Middle School parents say they were misled in petition to close campus
Some Webb Middle School parents are confused about a petition that could determine their school's future. A new petition process has sparked concerns about whether families fully understood what they were signing. Some parents of Austin ISD's Burnet and Webb middle schools have accused some of being misled about a petition to close them. The petition, which could determine their school's future, has sparked concerns about whether families fully understood what they were signing. The state could replace the school board, close the campus, or petition parents to close the schools. If more than 50% of parents at each campus sign, the commissioner must accept it and the district must submit an improvement plan. Advocates for the petition argue it gives parents more control over the future of their schools. However, some parents believe they were pressured to sign the petition without fully understanding the situation. The Webb PTA claims outside groups, including "Austin Council PTA", conducted a pressure campaign at the schools to get signatures.
