This new alliance seeks to unify community members, students, parents, and grassroots organizations to restore excellence, independence & respect in GCISD
Our panel discussion and the great chat conversation reminded us of the community we love and the people we respect -- ALL students, ALL educators! Great to have so many join us. We've recapped some highlights in this new blog post. https://t.co/wQSMhwzp4h >Time to VOTE is NOW!

latest tactic to attack tex ed. The gimmick this time, they'll try to convince one board at a time, that the org that provides quality resources is really the enemy & they can do better, and for free... at first. More to come on this con game that visited GCISD last week.
We started tracking GCISD's personnel reports when the New School Board Majority took over in May 2022. The running total of resignations and retirements is 290 resignations — with 159 in the 2022-23 school year ... so far. https://t.co/oEzD9I87dk
