  • Distracted Driver Crashes into Fire Truck, FWISD Takeover Debate, and Magnolia Avenue Coffee Shops Open

    Distracted Driver Crashes into Fire Truck, FWISD Takeover Debate, and Magnolia Avenue Coffee Shops Open
    2025/11/02
    Good morning, this is Fort Worth Local Pulse for Sunday, November 2nd. We start off with breaking news from overnight on the 287 interchange. A distracted driver crashed into a fire engine that was parked to protect a previous accident. Luckily, all firefighters had stepped away moments before and were not injured, but the truck driver and passenger were taken to the hospital. This incident reminds us all to stay alert on our roads.

    At city hall, there’s major debate following the state’s plan to take over Fort Worth ISD. The Texas Education Commissioner announced last week that the current school board and superintendent will be replaced, citing poor student performance, especially on the criticized STAAR exams. Only about 34 percent of Fort Worth students are at grade level, which prompted the move. Still, parents and teachers from Northside to Stop Six say the decision isn’t fair, calling the tests themselves flawed. A town hall is being organized this week at the district offices for families to share concerns and hear from new leadership. Our public schools have cut staff and programs due to a 44 million dollar deficit budget, so these changes could impact daily life for thousands across the city.

    Turning to the weather, after a chilly start, we’re expecting mostly sunny skies and pleasant temperatures all day. Today is perfect for outdoor activities, and we’ll stay dry through the evening. Looking into the start of the week, we can expect mild afternoons but another cold front is possible by Thursday, so keep the jackets handy.

    In real estate, Fort Worth’s housing market continues to see moderately priced homes, with average sale prices now around 325 thousand dollars. The rental market remains competitive, especially near Southside and the TCU campus. For those looking for work, Randstad says jobs in healthcare, logistics, and technology are hotter than ever. Local employers are consistently hiring in hands-on and office-based roles. If you’re looking for flexibility or growth, now is a great time to apply.

    New business activity is buzzing downtown, with three new coffee shops opening this weekend along Magnolia Avenue. However, longtime favorite Blue Bonnet Bakery on Camp Bowie has announced it will close at the end of the month after serving generations.

    On the local sports front, Paschal High’s football team clinched a playoff spot after a tight win on Friday night at Farrington Field. In community sports, the Cowtown Marathon announced registration for February’s event with early signup discounts now live.

    For upcoming events, tonight’s highlight is the Fort Worth Symphony’s outdoor concert at Burnett Park starting at 6 PM. The Cultural District is hosting Dia de los Muertos festivities all afternoon, featuring local music, food trucks, and family activities.

    A quick look at the crime report: besides last night’s highway accident, police responded to a burglary on Hemphill Street and made arrests in a downtown robbery case near Sundance Square. Authorities urge everyone to remain vigilant and report suspicious activity.

    For a feel-good story this Sunday, volunteers from Riverside set up a pop-up pantry on East Belknap yesterday, handing out fresh produce and hot meals to nearly two hundred families. It’s a great reminder of the kindness that lives in our city.

  • Fort Worth Pulse: SNAP Benefits, New Businesses, Entrepreneurship Events, Sports Updates

    Fort Worth Pulse: SNAP Benefits, New Businesses, Entrepreneurship Events, Sports Updates
    2025/11/01
    Good morning, this is Fort Worth Local Pulse for Saturday, November first, twenty twenty five.

    We're starting with a developing story that affects millions across Texas. A government shutdown is creating immediate hardship for families who depend on food assistance. Federal judges ruled Friday that the White House must use contingency funds to keep SNAP benefits flowing, but there are serious delays expected. Three point five million Texans rely on SNAP each month, with eighty million dollars of that monthly support coming right here to North Texas alone. The North Texas Food Bank tells us they're bracing for a surge in need, and they're warning families they may face tough choices between groceries and rent in the coming days. Food banks across Fort Worth are ready to help. The Community Food Bank on Galvez Avenue is open Monday through Thursday from nine in the morning to one in the afternoon. WestAid's food pantry on Camp Bowie West is also available Monday through Thursday, nine thirty to two thirty, with Friday hours from nine thirty to noon.

    On a more positive note, some new businesses are coming to our region. Irving is getting a new health and wellness clinic that opens Monday, November third, at eighty two hundred North MacArthur Boulevard. They're offering fifty percent off wellness and aesthetic services through early January. And just south of us in Buda, a new Chick-fil-A is opening Thursday, November sixth, bringing another dining option to that growing community.

    Here in Fort Worth, entrepreneurs and innovators have plenty to celebrate this month. The city is hosting several big events during Global Entrepreneurship Week. CreateFW is holding a grand opening for their reimagined space on Bryan Avenue on November seventeenth at four thirty in the evening, and they're also unveiling the inaugural Funkytown Founder Awards that night. It's a chance to recognize the people powering Fort Worth's startup ecosystem. If you're interested in innovation and tech, the Plug and Play Frisco Batch Four Expo is happening Wednesday, November fifth, at the Comerica Center in Frisco from four to nine in the evening, showcasing some incredible work in fintech and sports technology.

    Sports fans, high school volleyball playoffs wrapped up yesterday with several North Texas teams advancing. Springtown dominated Fort Worth Eastern Hills, and Decatur defeated Fort Worth Southwest in dominant fashion. Both teams move forward in the UIL playoffs.

    Before we wrap up, a reminder that if you need community resources or want to stay connected with what's happening around Fort Worth, the city has plenty of upcoming events listed on the Visit Fort Worth website.

  • "Halloween Happenings, School Threats, and Arts Abound in Fort Worth"

    "Halloween Happenings, School Threats, and Arts Abound in Fort Worth"
    2025/10/31
    Good morning, this is Fort Worth Local Pulse for Friday, October 31st, 2025.

    We're starting today with a significant public safety situation that unfolded yesterday at RL Paschal High School on Forest Park Boulevard. Heavy police presence, including a helicopter, was reported around the campus on Thursday afternoon as law enforcement investigated a possible bomb threat. According to the Fort Worth ISD Police Department, the school went into secure status, meaning all exterior doors were locked and no one could enter or exit. Students and staff remained safe inside the building while investigators worked the scene. Dismissal was held as a precaution, and streets around the campus were temporarily closed. The school sent families a message letting them know that law enforcement was actively investigating, and they would provide updates as soon as information became available. We don't yet have confirmation on the specifics of the threat or any arrests related to the incident.

    In education news affecting our community, the state's planned takeover of Fort Worth ISD continues to draw scrutiny. Texas Education Commissioner Mike Morath announced plans to replace the district's elected school board with state-appointed leadership, citing low student performance. The takeover decision is largely based on STAAR test results, the State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness. However, this has sparked significant debate because the state legislature is actually phasing out that same test, with lawmakers from both parties saying it doesn't accurately measure student learning and puts too much pressure on kids and teachers. Only 34 percent of Fort Worth students are currently performing at grade level, and the district is operating with a 44 million dollar budget deficit. On the positive side, the district has made progress over the last two years, reducing F-rated schools from 31 down to 11.

    If you're looking for things to do today, Fort Worth's Halloween festivities are in full swing. You can catch The Nightmare Before Christmas at Rooftop Cinema Club downtown this evening. The Lone Star Film Festival continues through November 4th with feature films and over 80 short films showing at the Modern Art Museum and Movie Tavern on West 7th. For live theater, Casa Mañana has West Side Story running through November 9th, and if you're in the mood for a musical celebration, Broadway at the Bass presents A Beautiful Noise, the Neil Diamond story, running through November 2nd. Plus, Billy Bob's Texas has concerts tonight featuring Blanco Brown.

    Looking ahead to the weekend, Fort Worth's Fall Japanese Festival takes over the Botanic Garden on Saturday and Sunday with cultural performances, demonstrations, and traditional foods. Sundance Square hosts its annual Catrina Fest on Saturday with live music, art vendors, and food trucks celebrating Día de los Muertos. And if you're a Jurassic Park fan, the Fort Worth Symphony Orchestra is performing John Williams' iconic score live to picture at Will Rogers Auditorium on Saturday night.
