This reads more like an piece from a local newsletter than an encyclopedia article... Axlrosen 01:15, 20 Oct 2003 (UTC)
This page needs to be edited. Kaye Stripling isn't the head of HISD anymore.
My name is Conrad Kabay and I am the product of the HISD.
I currently live in Austin Texas and am an MS Chemist for the Texas State Department of Health Services (formerly the Health Department).
I am 53 and would love to see any historical information regarding my educational upbringing. I am particularly interested in my Elementary School years (Southland Elementary) and have questions about my old school mates and teachers. Where did Mrs. Harper (who hated me) finally go ? What is the name of my first grade teacher ? Who amongst my generation of Southland Alums have gone on to lead distinguished careers or heaven forbid wound up in prison ?
I don't feel I am alone in these queries. My email is and would be very appreciative of any information.
thank you
Sincerely
M. Conrad Kabay

I propose that the list of schools be in their own respective sections on a separate pages with a quick blurb on the various pages. This edit alone should be able to clean this up substantially.

This article needs a clean up. I am adding a {{Update}} tag due to the spotty history and a {{cleanup-rewrite}} due to the organisation of the information. I believe this article needs extensive work to bring it up to the Wikipedia standards. This district is the seventh largest in the US, it deserves a good article. --Ben (talk) 05:30, 2 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

On 19:54, 29 July 2018, a section was added regarding the strip search controversy. In order to avoid authorial bias, quotes were taken from the US Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. Nevertheless, this was felt by another user to be both opinion and not properly cited. On 01:20, 30 July 2018, that user removed the updated information. I have gone over the changes in detail again to be sure they were accurate quotes and the citation included both page number and (if required) footnote.
I am sure there is just a miscommunication here. Since these are direct quotes from the court and the citation exists, I am reverting the change and asking the user that felt it was incomplete to move discussion to this page to find out exactly what the problems were and what additional changes would need to be done in order to satisfy them.
The statements in question were published in the court decision. This is a verifiable source, it is decided and written by an impartial judge.
I'm going over this again. Are you suggesting that the us courts of appeals decisions are not a verifiable source overall or that the incident specifically is not being completely clarified by the court?
Also, if you are only concerned with the living person, why are you deleting information unrelated to them?
User continues to revert changes without coherent explanation or clarifying edits.
Added dispute tag to make sure readers know that a user feels this is under dispute.
Further research tells me that this is accepted on wikipedia in other places. Safford_Unified_School_District#Legal_Cases is a very similar case and its listing there Safford_Unified_School_District_v._Redding uses references to decisions as well.
User has now unilaterally removed dispute and neutrality tags.
