@thereidout @CecileRichards I’m not a republican and I am pro-choice. Your reporting makes me think you think are an arbiter of opinion when you portray Republicans as “Fascists”. Stick to journalism, not Opinion. We can make our own minds up.

If a student needs psychological services on campus, the evaluation team may try playing on stigma fears. Just keep focusing on needed services. 🤨

Texas ranks 46th for out-of-district placements. According to the State Performance Indicator Target 5C, if a district is UNDER 1.3%, it meets the target. Is this a CAP? What do you think?
