Texas Discloses Educator Misconduct Reports
Description
Texas just unveiled a powerful new dashboard revealing educator misconduct reports—aimed at boosting transparency, safeguarding students, and restoring parental trust. With misconduct complaints nearly doubling in 2026 and 74% involving uncertified staff, the state’s new Inspector General role and public tool are sparking serious action. Districts are upgrading tech to monitor staff-student communications and beefing up teacher training. Over 9,700 investigations were opened in 2026—with violence, inappropriate relationships, and sexual misconduct topping the list. This isn’t about suspicion—it’s about swift accountability for the few, while protecting the vast majority of educators committed to student safety.
