-[[Sierra Independent School District]] serves all of the city of Sierra with a student population around 1.3 million and nearly all of the district's 600+ schools are fully accredited. It is not coterminous with county lines, instead serving it's own juristdiction. The school system is the largest in Verona, and the 2nd largest school system in the nation (based on student enrollment), second only to the statewide school system of [[San Rícardo Department of Education|San Rícardo]]. The City of Sierra Department of Education operates the Sierra City High School for the Arts.
+[[Sierra Independent School District]], with a student population of approximately 900,000, serves the majority of the city of Sierra. It is not originated and defined by the Sierra County boundary, but rather the City of Sierra's, and operates within its own jurisdiction, setting it apart from most other school districts in the state. The district boasts an impressive record of accreditation, with nearly all of its 700+ schools meeting accreditation standards.
-Several small sections of Sierra that were recently annexed are served by neighboring [[Bridgeland ISD]] and [[Mirada ISD]]. Though Sierra's city charter has a provision requiring all city residents to be served by a single school district, the city's government has not enforced this provision, nor has it made motions to press Sierra ISD to annex the portions of the city within those districts.
+As the largest school system in Verona and the second largest in the nation based on student enrollment, Sierra Independent School District plays a significant role in the educational landscape of the city. The district's operations are overseen by both the Sierra County Department of Education and the Verona Department of Education (VDOE), with the exception of Sierra City High School for the Arts, which is operated by the City of Sierra Department of Education.
+It's worth noting that several sections of Sierra are also served by neighboring school districts such as Bridgeland ISD, Hermosa ISD, and Mirada ISD. Although the city's charter suggests that all residents should be served by a single school district, the city government has not enforced this provision or taken actions to urge Sierra ISD to annex the portions of the city within those districts. As per Verona law, the final decision on this matter rests with Sierra ISD, as it is a self-governing entity that reports directly to the state.
