@KendallGPace@AustinISD Finally, weren’t you on the @AustinISD board with the power of a vote? What ideas did you propose for these schools or feeders that weren’t adopted, but might have helped? That’s the moving the conversation forward response i was originally looking for in your post.
@KendallGPace@AustinISD Have you taught students who enrolled in your 5th grade classroom for their first formal year of schooling anywhere, much less a foreign country? It doesn’t take more than a couple of students in those situations to dramatically impact scores.
Maybe a follow-up article to scrutinize this massive ed cartel? @RobertTGarrett@dallasnews

@HicklandHillary@HicklandHillary, this is your board of appointed managers. Do something about it. They were all appointed by the TEA commissioner and he was appointed by Abbott.
@mr_dsantos It is all fiction. They are able to use the data manipulation scams used by unscrupulous charters because the state is charge. Read close enough and the state will tell you in their accountability philosophy they are manipulating data as well.
@TeamBettencourt@NBCDFW And why am I having to explain all of this to the party supposedly so against cancel culture? I thought this was a fight I was going to end up having with Democrats?
@TeamBettencourt@NBCDFW The 10 commandments posting you’re proud of says Thou shall not kill. It doesn’t say Thou shall not kill republicans. We are all equal and we should let politics take a back seat for a minute to focus all in on curbing the violence in this country.
