Folks, I taught in MS, LA, & Humble ISD. Was director of Ed foundation in Klein ISD. Our children went K-12 in Klein. Our TX governor @GregAbbott_TX is đŻ wrong about public schools and it will bite him in his rear end. Public schools are great!

Harold Dodds, in 1954, lamenting that High School graduates do not have a firm grasp of the â3 Rsâ as they had back in 1930s.
I think about this when folks say similar today. Were the 1930s the zenith of high school performance in USA or is there a lesson here?

Hey, all you Texas professional educators!
Get out and #BlockVote in the primaries.
Find out who supports vouchers and vote against them regardless of party.
See ya at the polls!

The anti-voucher House Râs take their races seriously, as responsible public servants should.
But they will win them handily.
Their people know them. They are servant leaders in our churches, schools, communities.
@GregAbbott_TXâs billionaires canât buy these seats.

What if your policy proposal is so awful that you have to threaten and bully leaders of your own party to pass it?
Welcome to @GregAbbott_TXâs voucher world.
If thereâs one thing Texans hate itâs a bully.
Abbott wonât get his voucher.

Great visits in #txlege House today!
Clearly, the voucher plan doesnât have the votes.
If you have to resort to threats to pass a program, you have already lost.
The bipartisan caucus against vouchers and for #txed is growing!
No vouchers in Texas. Not now. Not ever.

Eight years of Dan Patrick have proven that he is bad for Texas schools.
He is bad for Texas women.
He is bad for Texas taxpayers.
Dan Patrick has failed Texas and on November 8th we will fire him.

Let the record show:
@MikeMorath & @GregAbbott_TX are pro STAAR test.
400,000 #txed teachers are opposed to it.
5.5 million schoolchildren are abused by it.
You know who is right.
Get rid of standardized tests in #2022elections #txlege @RYHTexas

Commissioner @MikeMorath thinks the STAAR test is âsimplistic,â âeffective,â and âaccurate.â He believes in the A-F accountability system which is based 100% on the STAAR test scores in elementary schools. #TribFest22

True Texas Republicans will vote for former Republican Mike Collier for Lieutenant Governor over Dan Patrick.
They celebrate and support #txed for all Texas children.
Patrick does not.

Any reference to âgovernmentâ schools is a @BetsyDeVos @KochIndustries lie.
They are PUBLIC schools.
Public roads. Public parks. Public water. Public police.
NOT Govât roads. Govât parks. Govât water. Govât police.
Your neighborhood. Your street. Your school.
