You'll want to sit down for this one. Former @AustinISD Board Prez @KendallGPace shares extremely low % of students mtg #ACT/#SAT criteria in our #TexasPublicSchools. We shared similar data last yr in our book The State of Texas' Failure.

Still think #vouchers without #accountability are a good idea? Nearly 9,000 #privateschools in #Louisiana don’t need state approval to grant degrees. #QuéTriste

When you consider what the Texas Constitution has to say about a system of public free schools...

Public schools
Taxpayer funded, publicly run

Charter schools
Taxpayer funded, privately run

Private schools
Privately funded, privately run

The creative ways people have responded to CRT bans, such as Black History Saturdays at school (which fed law blocks states from singling out), reminds me of the lengths to which black people went during slavery to keep literacy alive in their communities. https://t.co/RpN2c1B4T0

Those seeking to get rich from #TxEd use the pseudonym "#SchoolChoice" for the #VoucherScams & #CharterSchoolPerks they try to ramrod through the #TxLege. Let's remind our communities that our #TexasPublicSchools offer school choice with #SchoolsOfChoice & #ProgramsOfChoice!

"Nearly all of the @FortWorthISD school’s students come from low-income homes, & their basic needs aren’t always being met." Thus, the importance of organizations like @CISTarrant.

Thanks to @sportsguyjose for covering this important issue and for centering the voices of community gente who have advocated for public schools.

"Community schools are extremely important. They can really become part of someone’s identity....Ultimately, schools are the heart of our communities." Trustees & admin in #SanAntonio wrestle with fact that closures, even when necessary, are very unpopular

[Texas Latino School Boards Association @TheTLSBA]

"#SchoolChoice policy could become a talking point for primary elections." To be clear, our #TexasPublicSchools offer choice, & we are hard-pressed to verify the Governor's laughable claim that 80% of the voters in some #TxLege districts want #vouchers.

Props to @TXSBOE on exploring the addition of "#EthnicStudies: #AmericanIndian/#NativeStudies" for the sake of the students in our #TexasPublicSchools!

Lest there be any doubt, the political @TXSBOE continues to wage war on #science. “Teaching #climatechange to kids is the same as teaching them about gravity or addition and subtraction. These are settled scientific facts.” #DavidYeomans of @KXAN_Weather
