Wraparound Specialists and Other HISD Employees Told They Are Out of Jobs

Thursday was a tough day for many employees in Houston ISD, including those in wraparound services, as they were told they won't have jobs after this school year.

But HISD did acknowledge that wraparound positions were critically affected, adding that instead, going forward:"HISD will coordinate wraparound supports at the Division and District level next school year. Under this structure, campuses will continue to provide emergency supports, while the Divisions and Sunrise Centers will manage comprehensive supports for our students and their families.

Still, it had to be devastating news as one HISD administrator acknowledged in her delivery to 170 wraparound specialists in on a Thursday Teams call. A recording of her presentation was later placed on an HISD teachers website.
