Our students are walking out of classes tomorrow to support city, county
& state leaders at City Hall as they urge AISD board of trustees to vote against this rushed, unsound & inequitable school closures plan. We stand in solidarity w/ the #SaveAustinSchools coalition. Join us.

The Stetson report for special education in @AustinISD started in 2019. There were COVID delays for completion. It was taxpayer funded. The Superintendent publicly stated it is complete.I asked for it via open records and got this. We deserve better. #aisdsped

Please join this meeting, even if your child doesn’t attend. The decision has been made to remove 6th grade with no community input, knowing CAC is not well attended. We need more voices to oppose this. “Have it All” is only for some it seems. #AISD

[jedichingona @jedichingona]

This is an emergency! This is the meeting where parents will be told no more 6th grade at Martin next year. This is the only community engagement planned before announced to staff on Tuesday. We need everyone to attend and make public comment. Please retweet AISD followers.

I’m getting a flood of msgs from parents asking if they should send their kids to school next wk. There’s a lot to say, & it’s an indiv decision for every kid. TL;DR: there will only be 2 kinds of school in a wk or two: the planned closed ones & the unplanned closed ones. @hcpss

Intro: I am on the AISD Long Range Planning Facilities committee & an EAC sub-committee. It seems important to document the process in real time.

Below is Gov. Ann Richards signing Public Edu bill into Law under the Pease ES cupcake tree. History matters. These places matter.

@ElementaryMcbee @Matias_AISD @aisdparents @AISDElementary @Matias_AISD a little over a year ago you wanted to shutdown Palm, now you’re celebrating them. I’m glad they didn’t have to go through what other children and their families went through @savepease @BrookeLions sims elementary @metzelementary

More work and change is needed, parents and communities deserve better. Those trustees who looked the other way need to go, and no - they should not hand pick their replacement on the board.

[Rose Guajardo @rguajardo_atx]

@SharynVane @MamaBea79358492 @AustinISD This is completely infuriating, we fought so hard bc we questioned the budget benefit. By voicing opposition & concern @savepease closure timeline was changed-moved up in retaliation. I hope this never happens to another community by @AustinISD. What policies will change?

[Elizabeth Bailey @Elizabe78910340]

@MamaBea79358492 @AustinISDsupt @MamaBea79358492 guarantees were made last time https://t.co/HthZL4TmSu I’m afraid history will repeat itself with unkept promises. And they just got a billion dollars just a few years ago!!! And still closed schools because of budget deficits.

[Save Pease Elementary School! @savepease]

No benefits. Communities decimated. Thanks @AustinISD.
