While attempts to create a voucher program were unsuccessful, the legislative session ended with no increase in per-student funding and no money designated for teacher pay raises, despite a $33 billion budget surplus. https://t.co/Yk0FUZUjBd
The commissioner of education gets a raise from $220,000 to $325,000.
Teachers get $0 despite Abbott’s task force recs.
TEA adds hundreds of employees.
ISDs get no increases to the basic allotment and lots more rules and regulations to implement without sufficient funding.

Administrators should remember teaching so clearly that they can’t make a decision without thinking about it as a teacher.
That’s my TED Talk.
And if you’re mad about that statement, you probably need to get back into a classroom and be mad from there.
