The results are disappointing, so we asked Houston ISD Superintendent Mike Miles what surprised him, if anything.

The results from the latest STAAR exams are out, and Houston ISD Superintendent Mike Miles is talking about his students' performance.Overall, while students third through eighth grade across the state performed slightly better on the redesigned, all-online STAAR test, HISD students overall did not improve, and in fact, saw lower scores in reading."There's still a sense of urgency. The results didn't change that, in fact, they kind of confirmed that we should be urgent.

"That's too big a gap, and that's been the gap at HISD for a long time. We can't keep doing the same things and hope the achievement gap will go away," he said.
