Nearly one-third of public-school students are Latino, bringing unique cultures, traditions, and identities rooted in dozens of countries into our schools.
As we begin #HispanicHeritageMonth, we celebrate Latino excellence in our schools & our work at ED.

Important piece from former Speaker Joe Straus about the state’s underfunding of public schools. In constant dollars, state funding for schools is down $10 billion since 2020. #txed#txlege https://t.co/uwCJ1Q7dhY
Make sure your school administrators know that the Tx AG did not appeal the HB900 ruling. The vendor rating system and unconstitutional definitions in the bill are no longer upheld.
School librarians are community builders, innovators, collaborators, and so much more - including one of the best resources a student can have as they navigate the school year: https://t.co/bHBo825QAL
"Texas schools are among the lowest funded in the nation, and in the last legislative session, that did not change." From @abc13houston. #txlege#txed https://t.co/hFfzzVWxzt

Well, not the way we wanted the season to go, but what an experience! Both @PalaciosIsd players lost 2-1 in very close matches. Congrats to Weslaco High School and Plano ISD Academy for advancing to the championship.

Whether it's at your school or in your home town, the library is - and should always be - a place of endless possibilities & potential to learn.
Happy #NationalLibraryWeek!
Every Tx parent/librarian needs to read this saga - how a piece of software is being sold to support censorship that replicates things districts can already do but charges districts to do it(and at a potential privacy risk). Great investigative work by Kelly Jensen.
