RT @jennifer_blaine: Thank you to our amazing finance team! We are #sbisdproud @SBISD

Proud of these former CSA Cougars!

SBISD outperforms the state and nation and ranks among only 100 districts showing 5-year gains in both reading in math on NAEP according to the Education Recovery Scorecard based on —

It’s so disingenuous when @TeamBettencourt says he “appropriated 4 billion” for public education as if that gave us one penny. When #txlege appropriates money, but fails to pass a bill giving us the money, IT MEANS NOTHING. @chris_earnest21 @SBISD @jennifer_blaine @SBgrassrooted

Happy Burger Day, CSA! Today we celebrate the lives of our beloved Bill Burger and his beloved, Noreen. It’s been two years, and we miss them each day!

It has been so disappointing to watch our elected and appointed officials in TX disparage public ed as part of a narrative to push vouchers. As a conservative I feel completely abandoned by republican state leaders. If that weren’t bad enough, elected R’s are not only neglecting conservatives in public ed but they speak down to us with disdain. This morning our local elected State Board of Education member @willhickman asked Commissioner Morath @MikeMorath about @SBISD budget troubles. I thank Will Hickman for advocating for us. Morath dismisses our budget crisis as mismanagement of “one-time” federal funds meant to address learning loss due to COVID. In the clip Morath says that unlike most other districts in TX we didn’t understand those were one-time funds. We DID and personally reviewed that with him in Austin. He is lying to distract away from the funding issue we face. It’s lazy and dishonest. SBISD has already eliminated over $20M in ESSER related supports including 123 positions. We did that LAST SPRING. We spent 65% of those federal $s in the classroom and our improvement in scores since COVID show the money was used effectively. We now have another $35M to eliminate from our budget which is largely due to inflation and no additional funding. I explained this to Morath in Austin earlier this year and he acknowledged it was a real challenge.

Thank you to Will Hickman, Member of the Texas State Board of Education, for your continued support of SBISD! Please read an important letter from SBISD Superintendent @jennifer_blaine and Board President Chris Earnest 📲 bit.ly/3MG2Zvx

Laser focused! Proud of our @SBISD family! Well done team!!

Not a Pre-K program anywhere in the great state of Texas better than @SBISD - we are parent choice every.single.time. Click link & arrow to view- Premier program in Houston! Bring on that $8,000 per student! We win every time! #T24 @LionLanePrek fb.watch/lcf16_EDCC/?mibexti…

8th grade dance!!!

I’m glad you agree! That’s why @SBISD advocated more flexibility in how we spend our dollars. More control by the state is bad! It also doesn’t allow us to use money to combat the realities of inflation.

Let me get this straight - you are advocating for elected officials to have more control of their jurisdiction's property taxes? Totally agree. Now please return our taxpayers' money and don't collect any more. @TXLege you still have time to be a hero. Florida found a way.

So proud of our CSA artists!

Getting our Saturday morning math workout in at CSA!
