The Texas Education Agency has appointed a new school board at Connally ISD. This decision was made due to poor performance at the district. The appointment is part of the agency's efforts to improve the campuses.

A state law, passed in 2015, allows the agency to intervene in school districts with underperforming campuses. Further details about the appointment and the agency's plans for Connally ISD are available from local news sources, including FOX 44 News.
