This week, I signed onto a letter w/ a group of my #txlege colleagues requesting that TEA create a system for students to opt-out of the STAAR exam this year. We shouldn’t be requiring testing when our teachers & families are still struggling through this public health crisis. https://t.co/g3Mdm29Emz

After hearing from families across our district, Im asking @TEA Comm. Morath to waive STAAR testing for 2020/21. If we must resume testing, Im requesting that scores not be punitive to students. COVID is hard enough on students without the added pressure of STAAR test scores. https://t.co/N8pVInjSzA
I visited with the DMN ed. board on a range of important issues. It was a thorough discussion, & there are distinct differences between me & my opponent on education & public safety. Im grateful they endorse my common-sense approach to the issues we face together, as Texans. https://t.co/lgbAmgXSHO
RT @dallasschools: Reminder: No school for students, teachers or campus staff on Monday or Tuesday. https://t.co/PBzKHpPq8x
Our kids were excited to jump out of bed, put on their school clothes, pack a lunch & then head...down the hall to our dining room for the 1st day of school. Happy 1st day of distance learning to our 9th, 7th & 2nd graders! Your great attitudes & resiliency are a lesson to us all https://t.co/x0Z76bWbDZ
Keana & I appreciate the great work of our educators who continue to go above & beyond during the pandemic - on the front lines serving our families. I’m asking @GovAbbott to include school dist. employees in the frontline worker status & prioritize distribution of their vaccines https://t.co/Zpv3AjapU0
Dallas ISD is extremely fortunate to have great leadership during this unprecedented challenge. Dr. Hinojosa has not only shown patience, but hes also demonstrated empathy & a deep understanding of the diverse needs of @dallasschools families & teachers. https://t.co/usvNUlzjGC

Ive asked @teainfo Comm. Morath to waive STAAR for the 2020/21 year. If we must resume testing, Ive asked that scores not be punitive to students. Im filing legislation to do the same. COVID is disrupting schools across TX-students dont need the added pressure of STAAR scores https://t.co/7t5dgXArKT
Sad to be missing the first day of school for this crew who are growing up way too fast. 10th, 8th and 3rd this year! @hpisdschools https://t.co/IYOZap3xIy
