Monday's @AustinISD school board meeting will begin at 6 instead of 7.

It will likely be the longest board meeting since I started this job

We’re sardines in tonight’s @AustinISD board retreat mtg. Mtg is being held in board conference room (same place board operation mtgs are held). Two community members just came in & if more show, there could be a capacity issue 😮 #aisd

Hearing about the state of Civic health- political participation, citizens organizing through NGO, social connectedness

@AngelaW2012 I have seen community presentations, PTA and CAC often get dominated by white or more well off parents at our campus. The people making decisions don't reflect the diversity that exists at the campus.

Families with power have to allow space for the voices and needs of other families to be heard. #EquityAISDUT

A1: it involves challenging the status quo. it involves asking questions, engaging with people and listening to understand. It can be hard. #EquityAISDUT

[Amber Welsh @MsAWelsh]

#EquityAISDUT I'm new to twitter chat and in the middle of bath and bedtime, but excited to follow along. I'm a parent of 2 aisd students.

@melissataboada @AustinISD That might have been the quickest turnaround from a vote to story posted.
