Claim your profileI'm the senior education reporter covering Houston ISD and K-12 education for the Houston Chronicle, the daily newspaper serving the fourth largest city in the U.S. I write regular articles — along with a weekly newsletter — about news happening in one of the nation's largest school districts, including how the state takeover, systemic reform efforts, community advocacy and statewide K-12 education policies affect the district. I've previously worked for The Texas Tribune, The Dallas Morning News, the Austin American-Statesman and other media organizations in Texas. Along with my work as a reporter, I work to support the next generation of journalists by serving on the board for The Friends of The Daily Texan and as the co-chair of the Chronicle's internship committee.If you'd like to reach me, please email megan.menchaca@houstonchronicle.com.
