[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

We can’t lose focus on what matters – right now, Republicans in Texas are trying to gerrymander district lines to unfairly win five seats in next year’s midterm elections. This is a power grab that undermines our democracy.

[Nicole Martin @drnicoledmartin]

Join me next week to learn from some incredible CS education leaders about how CS education policies impact schools and districts!

[WeTeach_CS, weteachcs.bsky.social @weteachcs]

Policies related to CS education have a big impact on schools’ and districts’ ability to offer CS opportunities for all students. A #WTCS24 panel will share experiences about how their schools/districts are addressing CS education policies.

The vast majority of Texans support paying our public school teachers and staff more.

We have to find a way to get this done or teachers are not going to be able to stay in the classroom, leaving our kids and the future of our state to suffer.

[Jim Henson @jamesrhenson]

June UT/@Txpolproject Poll: 79% support increasing pay of public school teachers & staff.
Dems: 89% support (70% strongly)/9% oppose
Repubs: 73% support (41% strongly)/20% oppose
Ind: 70%/20%.

I never ask for a retweet y’all - but in honor of the 10th anniversary of my filibuster on 6/25 would y’all mind giving me one? We are coming together to celebrate and talk about how we move forward in a post Roe world. Would love it if you would share and come! ⬇️ @PPTXVotes

How are things going at the @weteachcs Summit? Let's see what @drfletcher88 has to say! #cs4yall #weteachcssummit #computerscience #education

[Nicole Martin @drnicoledmartin]

This is big for computer science education. Our research shows that taking Alg I by 8th grade is a major predictor of students enrolling in a CS course in high school. https://t.co/BV81V7JEtA @RyanTorbey @jaycewarner1 @drfletcher88

[The Education Trust in Texas @EdTrustTX]

#SB2124 replaces subjective placement policies and puts middle school students on track for 8th grade Algebra I if they demonstrate early readiness for rigorous math. #txed #txlege
