If you're familiar with Texas classrooms, this event is important. Here's why. 🧵👇🏽
Our @teachplusTX Policy Fellows –– current classroom teachers –– are conducting statewide research to understand what it takes to ensure every student earns a postsecondary credential or degree within six years of graduation.
On Saturday, we'll take a look at what that means 👇🏽
As an educator, @teachplusTX Policy Fellowship alumna @jteree's advocacy for her students is fueled by what she needed as a student growing up in a rural, underserved area.
She shares how she pays it forward:

Shout out to @templejcwbb Coach Amber Taylor, players, and Lady Mustang Jasmine for mentoring our KPES students at our monthly Breakfast Club! 💛Our students were applying the teamwork and skills they’ve learned in the gym, before and after school. That’s what real impact looks like. 💪🏽✨

Congrats to TASA Executive Committee member @OttTempleISD@TempleISD, who was presented with the @tspra Key Communicator Award by TSPRA President Kristyn Cathey, APR, during the organization’s annual conference in Galveston today! #InspiringLeaders#txed#TSPRA26
I had the absolute BEST time presenting alongside Teacher Commission Chair, Krystal Thomas, at the 41st Annual @TABSE_Texas State Convention. So inspired by the impact these educators will make at both the elementary and secondary levels.
By educating educators, two Master Teachers from @TempleISD are evolving into Master Leaders.
💙So proud to see @teachplusTX Fellows & Alumni presenting at the @TexasNBCT Conference at ESC Region 20 in San Antonio!
Teacher leaders sharing expertise, growing together, and strengthening the profession. 👏
