For real! 💯

The TX Gov called a 2nd special #txlege session to eliminate M&O property taxes. Here's what those are:
- M&O = Maintenance and Operations
- These are the bulk of your local property taxes that fund local public schools

While #txed funding is being held hostage, ISDs are finding ways to reward employees for all they do even it means adopting deficit budgets.

As teachers deal with a STAAR redesign, new accountability, and everything else that comes with those changes, the #txlege has failed to celebrate and recognize their efforts.

Kudos to Boards, like Seguin ISD's, who are doing their best. Teachers deserve better.

[Klein ISD @KleinISD]

🎉 HAPPY NEWS, #KleinFamily! 🎉 Our Klein ISD Board unanimously approved a PAY INCREASE for ALL Klein ISD employees as part of our 2023-2024 Compensation Plan! 🙌

Gov @GregAbbott_TX now targeting school voucher opponents with his vetoes. He is now saying that certain bills can only be considered in a future special session after about a voucher bill passes #txlege

[Michelle Rinehart @DrMRinehart]

When the state won’t lead for public education, we will.

We have been. We continue to. We must.

Imagine a world where both local leaders AND state leaders lead for the public school students of Texas. #txlege, we’re looking at you. 👀

School districts across the state are dealing with budget deficits after the #txlege did not increase key funding. https://t.co/XdsOaeYPBd

The SD County Teachers of the Year threw out tonight’s honorary first pitches @padres #EducatorAppreciationNight!

[Bobby Ott @OttTempleISD]

As ISDs adopt budgets & compensation for schools, I’m reminded of @GovAbbott Teacher Vacancy Task Report’s top recommendation: “Increase overall compensation and support strategic compensation strategies”. Credibility isn’t measured by a task force, but rather the response.

[Matthew Gutiérrez, Ed.D. @DrMattGutierrez]

"Teachers are the only state employees who won't receive raises this session."

A complete disregard/disrespect for the work educators do to impact our future. Educators deserve better. #txed #txlege

We're doing what we can to provide salary increases, be we need to be able to do more to retain.
