If I were elected Governor, I would establish a committee of current and former Superintendents and let them recommend how to improve student achievement and finance Texas public schools properly. Politicians doing this is like me performing brain surgery on myself. No vouchers!
Flushed with cash, the Tx house and senate agree on a budget with no teacher pay raise? Seriously? Are we going to tie passing vouchers to a pay raise? Is that the game we are playing? Good to see retired teachers can get a license plate out of it though!!
Last day at the Gtown office. What a wonderful five years. Fantastic people to work with!Janet and I are looking forward to turning the page to the next chapter in our lives at Midlothian. Great adventures await!!
Happy 38th anniversary to my wife Janet. This is one of my favorite pictures. In front of Corrigan Camden HS right after we signed our first contract to be Head Coach and AD. My, where did the time go?
One of my favorite pictures! 21 years ago tonight my brother and I celebrate the completion of the trifecta. Just wish Dad was on the field. He was looking down with a smile on his face!
The cold and calculated dismantling of the Texas public education system has begun by the officials this Sate elected to office. Withholding billions in financing simply because legislators will not pass vouchers is hurting our children. Ft. Worth ISD looking at cutting positions
I want to share my sincere appreciation to the Football coaches and players at both Midlothian and Heritage who in the last 2 regular seasons have combined for a record of 37-3 with two perfect 10-0 seasons and 3 undefeated district championships!! Legacy!
If our country was more like a sports team the world would be a better place. No divisions here. Only brotherhood! Everyone of all walks of life United in a common cause! This is what life is all about!! More to come.
To the Coaches and players of MISD and across the state in all activities, I feel your pain! I would like to share one of my favorite sayings. I am wounded but not yet dead. I will just lie down and bleed a while and then I will rise and fight again!!

Let me get this straight. Auto workers are seeking a 40% pay raise but the Texas legislature awards teachers a 0% raise. Who are you dropping you children off to every morning? I am sure that special session in October will solve everything though!😜😂
Something very special is happening in Allen tonight. Coach Terry Gambill and his son Cody are both being inducted into the Allen Athletic Hall of Fame!!
Big thank you to our friends at the UIL, Ray, Joseph, Grace and Hannah for putting on a first class tournament. Georgetown ISD led by Jason Dean are the best hosts you could ask for! Special memories!
In a little over two weeks there will be a huge election. Four runoffs that will shape the future of public education in Texas. Good luck to the anti- voucher candidates. No matter how they spin it , vouchers will drain millions from public education. Vote for all the children!!
A big thank you to Georgetown and the UIL for putting on a first class event and congrats to the Heritage girls soccer team for bringing home the State Championship to Midlothian!!
What a wonderful reunion. Thank you Corrigan for the warm welcome. Great to see all the former players and the great men you have become!! Love you all!!
Shout out to the GHS band. You played and played and played during the entire ballgame. You were a big part of a great victory. On the road again next Saturday!!
I feel bad for the parents and children who are having their neighborhood schools close down when there are billions in state aid not being released due to vouchers not being passed. So Sad!!
Really enjoying my former Head Coach at East View and now AD at Harlingen, Rob Davies, lecturing to ADs at coaching school. This guy is a rising star in our profession!!
