God works in us day after day to refine us, so we can bless others with His love and appreciate what they have to give, as well.

The best thing teachers can do for their colleagues… is to bring a positive attitude to work every day. 

Positive energy is contagious.

[Jamy Bechler @CoachBechler]

Good reminder for us all today.

[Danny Steele @SteeleThoughts]

Authentic leaders don’t have to talk about their core values. Everyone already knows their core values based on their actions.

[David H. McKinley @pastordhm]

The arrogance and hypocrisy of academia in Ivy League institutions in USA is at the core of our present social conflicts and moral confusion. Let your ‘yes’ be ‘yes’ and your ‘no’ be ‘no’ Apology accepted. Resignation requested.

What we do matters!

[Chuck Swindoll @chuckswindoll]

The book of Nehemiah records how God used an ordinary man to inspire a group of defeated people to achieve a monumental, God-given task. Pastor Chuck draws valuable lessons on leadership, for leaders and anyone who wants to follow God’s calling. https://t.co/3NW1l4jRcG

We won’t always get the immediate gratification for the work we put into classrooms and schools. Helping each other see that impact brings more people back the next day w/ the knowledge that they impact those around them. Sometimes that’s all we need. #LeadFromWhereYouAre

[Matt Kimball @TxMattKimball]

Public education is part of the American Dream. It is imperative to properly fund public schools and keep taxpayer money in a system of robust accountability and transparency. Vouchers diminish the public education system and have no accountability or transparency!!

[Gina Hinojosa @GinaHinojosaTX]

Texas public schools have spoken.

“We're not interested in compromising for vouchers to gain school funding. This is a hill that we're willing to die on. We believe so strongly in public schools that we are not willing to compromise for the governor's agenda."

[Big Bad Bear @CoxHerb]

And here ya go.
Vouchers are absolutely NOT for “all students.”
Stop lying and tell the truth.
This is why vouchers have already failed in the House 4X.
And they’ll fail again in any and all special sessions our sold out governor decides to call.
Vouchers = scam

[RaiseYourHandTexas @RYHTexas]

We need to fund our schools...raise the basic allotment! #txed #txlege

[Bobby Ott @OttTempleISD]

In this historic moment @TempleISD & @BeltonISD school boards came together to adopt a joint resolution for legislative priorities going into the special session:

1. Increase basic allotment
2. Accountability & Assessment Reform
3. No diversion of public funds towards vouchers
