Austin ISD is poised to shut down Paredes Middle School before the 2026-27 school year, redirecting students to Bailey and Mendez — a move sparking concern among families and educators. Superintendent Matias Segura cited stagnant student progress despite recent investments, while Education Austin blames state funding cuts for forcing tough choices. Parents worry about disrupted transitions and larger class sizes, and the district faces looming state intervention if performance doesn’t improve. The board will vote on the closure July 30th — a decision that could reshape middle school futures for hundreds of students.
