We are so excited to finally roll out this STEAM resource in our 84 Project READ @DISD_Libraries This engaging and interactive augmented reality tool @mergeedu puts science in the hands of our students!

School hasn’t even started & Ms. Criner in the @GreinerLibrary already has @GreinerAcademy student helpers setting up & using their new technology zones! They aren’t even waiting for new carpet, paint, and furniture to get going - first day ready with 3D printing, cricut, AV production & podcasting, ! So excited to see this all come together for this community later this fall! @DISDLibrarian @DISD_Libraries @DrElenaSHill @shannontrejo @TeamDallasISD

[Dallas ISD Project R.E.A.D. @ProjectReadDISD]

We can’t wait to see how our @dallasschools students explore, apply, and design with all of these new tech tools! @DISDLibrarian @DrElenaSHill @shannontrejo @TeamDallasISD

[Dallas ISD Project R.E.A.D. @ProjectReadDISD]

🚨MAG-nificent!
The Judge Barefoot Sanders Law Magnet sent two teams to the National Mock Trial Competition in Minneapolis. The students accomplished an amazing feat finishing as the top two mock trial teams in the country and sharing the title of Co-Champions! Way to go Team!

I love that so many of our @dallasschools families stood in line for BOOKS to build a culture of literacy in their homes! It was so fun to be part of the @DallasMayor’s Back to School fair - and event that puts our families in touch with the resources they need to have a successful school year kick off! @TeamDallasISD @DISD_Libraries @DrElenaSHill @shannontrejo

[Texas Library Assn. @TXLA]

Superintendent Mike Miles, appointed in June by the Texas Education Agency to lead Houston ISD, will eliminate librarians and media specialists from the 28 campuses under his New Education System and an additional 57 aligned schools. https://t.co/tv9j36rhv9

[Dr. Stephanie S. Elizalde @DallasISDSupt]

And @WayneNBC5 and I talked about how @dallasschools are eliminating 18 days’ worth of unnecessary tests to free up more time for teachers to engage with students.

[Dr. Stephanie S. Elizalde @DallasISDSupt]

The #txlege also gives districts $15,000 per campus to pay for armed security officers that cost us with salaries and benefits more than $80K.

[Dr. Stephanie S. Elizalde @DallasISDSupt]

Dallas ISD pays $213 per student on school safety for things like lights, locks, and cameras. The state now gives us $10 per student.

@DallasISDSupt @oakcliffchamber Not. A. Dime. 😢

[Dr. Stephanie S. Elizalde @DallasISDSupt]

At Dallas ISD we’re giving teachers an average 3% raise and boosting our minimum wage to $16 – but the state’s public ed funding hasn’t gone up since 2019.

[Dr. Stephanie S. Elizalde @DallasISDSupt]

It’s truly mind boggling that the legislature started with a $33 billion surplus and we’re having a conversation about teachers getting zero from that. https://t.co/5tVMlKAhSz
