An increase in #COVID19 testing should mean a lower positivity rate. But in Houston, the opposite is happening. This means there is a very high level of disease spreading in our city. If we want to restore the economy, we must #MaskUp, #SocialDistance & #WashHands. #hounews

In order to learn & grow, students must be healthy & safe. We urge school districts to defer in-person instruction for at least 8 weeks per @TEAinfo provisions, until data supports a phased in-person reopening.

About 25% of Houstonians getting tested for #COVID19 are coming back positive, indicating a high level of disease is spreading in our community. We need to drive the positivity rate down to 5% or below. We have a long way to go and need everyone to #maskup and social distance.

Our goal when it comes to combating #COVID19, is when our positivity rate is at 5% or less. We have a long way to go as our current positivity rate is currently around 25%. If you are around individuals or around a large group not wearing masks, please turn around.

ICYMI - Earlier TEA Guidance Still Applies - School systems may begin the year virtually under TEA funding waivers for up to four weeks, and can extend that for an additional four weeks. TEA will also continue to adjust its waivers as the situation warrants. #txed

It’s not “radicalizing” to teach kids that #BlackLivesMatter. It’s not “leftist indoctrination” to teach kids that #LGBTQ people deserve to be treated the same as anyone else. It’s just teaching them to be good people. It’s that simple.

You cannot love your neighbor while supporting or accepting systems that crush, exploit, and dehumanize them. You cannot love your neighbor while accepting less for them and their family than you do for you and your own.
