What’s the process once a school district has fallen under state control i.e. testing ?

The Hattiesburg thread made me revisit questions I’ve had about the state testing for awhile now. I don’t want to derail that one. So I posed them here. Disclaimer I know nothing of maneuvering through public funding.
 

 

What’s the downside to it and why do local boards go witch doctor crazy at the very whisper of it ?

I read a little of the current guidelines and only saw that a certain point schools would come under a separate district at the state level. 

If it didn’t affect funding I can’t believe that some districts haven’t said go for it . Let’s see how you do enforcing your own guidelines.

What happens if the schools in this separate “ district jail “ still don’t perform ?

 

I’m editing this to clarify being taken over for a failing grade for testing .
Are there other parameters that could make them fail besides that

Some of it was desecration from the 60s. Leake County comes to mind. The Judge agreed to a forced plan that closed two small schools. Noxubee County comes to mind, finances, lower numbers of students. Some counties have avoided it by consolidation ahead of time. I will say failed leadership(Scott County) a few years back, finances, lack of funding, etc.
