1. If after 1st grade we can identify that a student is at extreme risk to become a dropout, and then we let that happen... Shame on us. (By @LYSNation)

2. Never argue with a crazy person. They'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience. (By @RatliffT)

3. The whole point to knowing the future is to make it better, not to sit back and watch it happen. Actually use your data. (By @LYSNation)

4. Hutto HS is taking Lesa Cain's advice. We will work hard, make mistakes, and make changes. What will you do? (By @brandyjbaker)

5. Policies banning cell phones at schools are outdated. We can teach kids to use them responsibly and need to use current ways to reach kids. (By @Snowmanlearning)

6. Did you hear about the Teacher who won the lottery? When asked what she would do she said, "Teach & teach until I go broke." (By @LYSNation)

7. Llano ISD teachers still can use CSCOPE lesson plans after court ruling - Details on http://www.texasisd.com/ (By @texasisd)

8. In the CSCOPE battle, the ideology that we need to fear is the ideology of the Anti-CSCOPE loonies. (By @LYSNation)

9. I'm a concerned parent. Concerned that a few rabble-rousers are making teaching and learning tough for our teachers and students. (By @TheTexasHoss)

10. It never gets old reporting this; the number 1 best selling education book on Kindle, today... The Fundamental 5! Thank you, LYS Nation! (By @LYSNation)
