1. Education should not be the place to cut corners if the state wants to achieve its ambitious economic goals. (By @RYHTexas)

2. Inadequate. Inequitable. Unconstitutional. That about says it. (By @Snowmanlearning)

3. I don't mind paying taxes even though I have no kids in school. Keeps me from having to live in a country full of dummies. (By @BKPRADIO)

4. Visited Motley Elem this morning. Lesson frames in every classroom. Also small group purposeful talk. Way to go! (By @LindaHenrie1)

5. Teachers must be experts in the HOW of instruction not the WHAT and WHEN. Frame it and teach! (By @hjgrubbs)

6. Coach S is taking attendance on her phone while monitoring her student's warm-up... in the Power Zone. (By @brandyjbaker)

7. Had a great day with 300 school leaders from Mesquite ISD! Welcome to the LYS Nation!

8. Privatizers try to scare parents into private/parochial schools. Real danger is not supporting public schools for all. (By @TXKidsCantWait)

9. Note how privatizers try to de-professionalize teaching—to justify much lower salaries & no retirement annuities. (By @TXKidsCantWait)

10. For the people who say it's not the gun, it's the person... What if it is both?

Think. Work. Achieve.
