Will it be your school district? If they can dismantle the largest your district will be easy.
Everyone needs to be aware about the political takeover that’s occurring in Houston ISD.
If you live in a republican controlled state and you don’t think this could happen to your schools, I promise you that it can.
Greg Abbott and Mike Miles have got to go.

This is the kind manipulation of data that comes from the

When a superintendent lacks sufficient board oversight and community input, it's like a captain sailing without a compass. The educational journey can veer off-course, missing valuable insights that ensure a school system meets its goals.

There's been no commitment from the special education team about when services will resume. Children, in NES & NES-A campuses are being exposed to district mandated curriculum, lesson, pacing, and segregated disciplinary practices that may be in direct violation of their rights.

This is the culture that Mike Miles has brought to HISD. This teacher has suffered a heart attack and is in the hospital, but is worried about being fired because the teacher is missing days because of the heart attack. The policy is inhumane and illegal.

I'm an HISD community member speaking on behalf of a principal who's afraid to share their comments for fear of retribution. As an experienced principal, I have seen good and bad superintendents, a good suit will have clear expectations and professional interactions.

Don't remove the arts programs from our schools, don't punish high achieving principals with some inconsistent rubric, and don't take away our libraries and librarians. Look at our schools as homes, because to us, they are. Be a better human.
