Hundreds of thousands of students across North Texas head back to school Monday, including in the area's largest school district, Dallas ISD.
The district has more than 140,000 students and 240 schools. The largest is Skyline High School with around 4,000 students.
"There's no substitute for reading, writing, good arithmetic, and giving people the time and teachers the autonomy for teaching it the way that students get it," Skyline High School principal Joseph Pouncy said.
Students in the state's third-largest district, Frisco ISD also return to class on Monday, along with Garland ISD, Irving ISD, and Carrollton-Farmers Branch ISD.
