I couldn’t think of better way to spend our time than sharing how we support, uplift, and recognize brilliance in each other.

Matthew was my mentor and our classes connected my first year in 5th grade at Perez. I learned so much from him and I continue many of his traditions to this day. I’m so proud.

EDUCATION AUSTIN MEMBERS WIN HISTORIC CONSULTATION AGREEMENT FOR COMPENSATION

The Education Austin consultation team has reached a consultation agreement for compensation with the district.

[Kari Johnston @holamsjohnston]

Hey, Texas legislature! Let’s make the right choice. #fundpublicschools

[KUT Austin @KUT]

District officials, parents and educators in the Austin area are ramping up demands for more state funding with less than a month left in the legislative session. The increases that lawmakers have proposed do not come close to keeping up with inflation. https://t.co/XEOzWNAKMx

[Kari Johnston @holamsjohnston]

Mayday! Today I stood alongside educational leaders from central Texas in support of increased funding for our public schools.

I used my teacher voice. You should use yours too: https://t.co/97MEWNBkG2

There’s a month left in the Texas Legislative Session. So there’s still time to get school funding right.
We need $900 per student to keep up w/inflation. So far, the House has approved just $90 in the basic allotment.
Here’s an easy way to add your voice! https://t.co/jeqUTZFN2t
