After making the #SCTop10 last night, Wayne Stewart spent his Friday catching lobs from our verbally committed, future Lion, of @GoTeamIMPACT, EMERSON!

[Kevin Brown @KBrownTASA]

After being in both Lubbock and the Rio Grande Valley in the past week, I am reminded how fortunate we are in #txed to have powerful leaders. No two communities are the same, even between next door neighbors. That uniqueness often leads to innovation and customization. @tasanet

A longer post on why the current structure of accountability in schools will never meet its policy goals--and that has little to with tests (not that they are innocent, but you could put the best test in the world in this system and it still can't work).

@wingoz just read an article about your Dads time at Baylor and the Sugar Bowl. Thought you might enjoy these two treasures from my father that coached there during that time.

Boy do I agree with this! It’s up to all of us to stay in tune w/ what’s happening in our #txed public schools— vote FOR public school advocates or one of our country’s greatest achievements will erode. #txlege @pastors4txkids @Texans4E @projecteduco

When I asked Clemson Coach Dabo Swinney if he was an overachiever he said, "No. I’m an over believer." If you want success in 2020, create an attitude of belief in yourself and your team.

Contrary to what many people assume, church is not a place where good people gather. Church is a place where guilty people gather to be reminded that, because of what Jesus has done for us, we are safe from the judgment we deserve.

[Texas Association of School Boards @tasb_news]

What students are saying about how to improve American education:
- Eliminate standardized tests
- Give teachers more money and support
- Support students’ families
