Edgewood ISD Trustees Vote to Hand Over Brentwood Middle School to Charter Network
Edgewood Independent School District trustees have decided to transfer daily operations of Brentwood Middle School to the Third Future Schools charter network. This move aims to improve the schools unacceptable academic ratings and prevent potential closure or state takeover. Third Future Schools, founded by Mike Miles, has a proven track record of turning around campuses and is expanding in Texas. The decision was made after closed-door talks, with one trustee absent and the youngest board member voting against it due to lack of transparency. The district, which serves nearly 8,000 students, is now under scrutiny as it awaits the charter networks impact on Brentwoods performance and its future course.
