Well...sort of. Fully fund IF the district also offers face to face instruction or IF remote instruction for all is part of a 4 week "transition period" at the beginning of the year. Should read "fully funding*" or maybe "committed*" with an asterisk. Committed is a strong word.
Reminder to ALL TX Families: Every parent in our state still has the option to choose remote learning for their child—and TX leaders remain committed to fully funding remote instruction for any TX family that wants that option for their child during the entire 20-21 School Year.
Last week when there were false rumors of Congressman John Lewis’ passing, Gayle and I called and were able to speak with him. He sounded weak but was surprisingly more alert than we expected.
To every African American young man that I have had the honor of coaching and to every African American man that I have had the honor to work with, I apologize on behalf of a Nation that must do better.

People will say "I don't like confrontation" to avoid situations! My reply is you're in luck no confrontation needed...just a conversation. It is your intention and tone that distinguishes conversation and confrontation. #crucialconversations#coaching#canwejusttalk
Bad IEP? It’s not the person who drafted the IEP who will be criticized, it’ll be the last person who could have fixed it but didn’t! #IEP#BackToSchool
Be careful how you treat people regardless of your position or theirs: In life the tables can turn quick! Never allow your character -loyalty or integrity to be based upon opportunity.
I’m most interested in what happens with Lonzo Ball. If he’s not included in any future deals to bring another star, LeBron being there is going to force LaVar to be quiet. Let him pop off about LeBron at any point, and they’ll put Lonzo in a one-way U-Haul with some Cliff bars.
Let’s start this week off with our heart and intent positioned to make an impact....People May forget what you do but people will never forget how you make them feel- Maya Angelou.
