What happened

Alief’s 2026–27 plan may share counselors, clinic aides and family liaisons between schools. It removes some clerk, library/workroom aide and after-school positions. Officials said affected workers would be offered other placements.

Why it matters to families

Students may have less dedicated support on campus. The minutes do not name every affected school, so families need campus-specific staffing details.

The evidence

March 19 council minutes list the position changes, describe HR placement options and explicitly say no one is losing their job. This supports a service and staffing change, not a claim of layoffs.
