Houston-area school districts are returning to class for the 2026-2027 school year.
On Monday, officials approved emergency spending for repairs to the school. In addition, funds will be needed to prepare an alternate location for students.
The district said the students were being transported between Clear Creek ISD and Alvin ISD as part of a deaf and hard of hearing program. Fortunately, no one was hurt.
In a statement, Alvin ISD said Don Jeter Elementary, Savannah Lakes Elementary, and Rodeo Palms Junior High were under a secure protocol, which has since been lifted. The shooting did not take place on a campus.
According to court records, the educator's alleged act took place last month, but he wasn't arrested until Tuesday, weeks later. Parents also learned about the allegations just this week.
For the second year in a row, Alvin ISD will have a lowered tax rate.
