BREAKING: An appalling revelation for Lone Star children surfaced in a research report conducted by Texas Education 911. According to the research, most reports of sexual and violent misconduct by school employees in Texas go uninvestigated by state authorities.
The report has unveiled a disturbing pattern described by researchers as “state-sponsored child abuse” within the Texas public education system. The findings detail thousands of allegations of misconduct involving teachers and other school staff, with a majority of these reports left unexamined by the state.
Texas Education 911, a parent advocacy organization, published the report titled
“State-Sponsored Child Abuse: School Employee Misconduct in Texas” after two years of investigation. The group analyzed misconduct reports submitted to the Texas Education Agency (TEA) between September 2021 and July 2024.
Their research uncovered 6,888 allegations of physical and sexual offenses committed by taxpayer-funded school employees over a 34-month period. Shockingly, 61 percent of these reports were not investigated by the TEA.
During a Senate Education Committee hearing in September, TEA Commissioner Mike Morath admitted that the agency lacks the necessary “administrative resources” to review all the complaints, Texas Scorecard pointed out.
“These are not just statistics; each number represents a child who suffered at the hands of an adult employed by a Texas school—most of which are taxpayer-funded institutions,” said Aileen Blachowski, a Prosper parent and representative of Texas Education 911.
The report revealed a yearly increase in misconduct reports, yet few complaints led to the revocation of teaching certificates as mandated by law. Out of 1,412 allegations of inappropriate sexual relationships between school employees and students, only 14 percent resulted in permanent revocation of educator certificates.
“The option for accused educators to voluntarily surrender their certificates instead of undergoing an investigation is far too common and should be abolished,” the report stated.
Additionally, the findings highlight shortcomings in pre-employment screening, with 30 percent of newly hired Texas teachers being uncertified.
Blachowski emphasized the need for systemic change, saying, “The data demands stronger preventative measures, thorough investigations, and stricter accountability to ensure student safety.”
The report includes real-life examples of mishandled cases and outlines proposed solutions to address the systemic issues. Among the recommendations is the establishment of an independent Office of Inspector General of Education to investigate abuse, fraud, and misconduct in taxpayer-funded schools.
Blachowski noted that existing legislative proposals fail to align with the group’s goals for such an agency.
Other recommended reforms include overhauling educator hiring practices; upgrading reporting and investigation systems to meet professional standards; eliminating barriers to holding abusers and their enablers accountable; ensuring transparency, accountability, and due process; and closing loopholes that allow offenders in schools to evade justice.
“While true educators are not predators, evidence shows that child abusers exploit opportunities to work closely with children,” Blachowski said. “It’s time to eliminate the gaps that leave Texas students vulnerable and restore integrity to the teaching profession.”
The full report is available on the Texas Education 911 website, aiming to inspire legislative action during the 89th Legislative Session.
“We must end state-sponsored child abuse and prioritize the protection of our children,” Blachowski concluded.
