Rezoning Problems For Current Lexington Elementary Families--

It has come to our attention that one brewing school zoning battle is going on at Lexington Elementary. A group of concerned parents are organizing to stop their Missouri City First Colony Community from losing access to their school.

FBISDWatch comment:

Is it a fair process, via the current committee appointments, with no parents or other community stake-holders involved with the decision making. How many other schools/families will be impacted?
