Texas School Districts Sue Education Agency Over AI-Graded Testing System

In a recent development, various school districts have filed a lawsuit against Texas Education Agency Commissioner Mike Morath, alleging violations of the Education Code in the implementation of a new AI-graded standardized testing system for the 2023-2024 academic year. The plaintiffs are requesting a permanent injunction to halt the release of any test scores assessed using this system, raising significant concerns over the accuracy and fairness of AI-based evaluations.

This legal action has led to a temporary freeze on the release of these grades, pending a court ruling.
