Good morning, Edinburg. Here's your local news at a glance for Friday, the 5th of September.

EDUCATION NEWS

  • Texas lawmakers sent House Bill 8 to Gov. Abbott’s desk to replace the STAAR test with three shorter exams that students will start taking in the 2027-28 school year, and the bill eliminates the graduation requirement for English II while speeding up test score returns. The changes aim to lower student stress and free up classroom time — a shift designed to better track academic progress.  The Edinburg Advocate

HEALTH NEWS

  • County officials opened the valley’s first OnMed CareStation at the McAllen clinic on Sept. 3—using telehealth to let residents check vital signs and speak with a doctor in real time. The station offers no-cost primary care for residents age 2 and up and is a joint effort with Molina Healthcare.  The Edinburg Advocate
