“You put your most effective teachers with your least effective kids. That’s equity.” HISD Superintendent Mike Miles (Can I get an Amen?)

I will never understand why a district would embarrass kids like this. CSD predicted a 7% increase in its property tax digest this year and the state is sitting on $16 billion in reserves. What is the point of this?

It’s here!!! Join us as we celebrate Career and Technical Education Month. CTE Month is a public awareness campaign, hosted by ACTE and sponsored by NAHB, that takes place each February. #CTEMonth
