No thanks you need to leave. You are no good for Texas.

No thanks.

As a disabled veteran, I find it offensive that you would allow a Senator to lie about veterans. Senator Donna Campbell of SD 25 needs to be held accountable, her lies are unacceptable, and are disgusting. Lt Gov. Dan Patrick, as president of the senate, regardless your stance on Medical Marijuana, you should be deeply offended by her lies, I have lost multiple friends to suicide, since I was 23, I'm 33 now. Suffering from PTSD myself, if Texas cares as much as I have always believed about veterans, something will be done. muncheez.com/culture/texas-lawmaker-lies-about-pot/

maybe after you're in prison.

Will the emails include christian propaganda too?

Or are you going to block me and erase all the comments like Senator Dr. Donna Campbell. I ask everyone go to her page and ask her to provide the study

so... how about a little something for the working people who made this possible? o wait... my bad... working people aren't your donors, silly me... no soup for them!

And yet we're still giving corp millions in incentives and letting the simple tax payer carry even more property tax burden. Execs will line their pockets and pull out after the 5-10 love fest is over.

Today on the Senate floor, Senator Donna Campbell of Senate District 25, stated that 70% of veterans who commit suicide have THC in their blood. Sen Campbell used dead veterans, our brothers and sisters, to imply that marijuana caused them to commit suicide. Remember that. This after veterans have testified to her over and over again that marijuana saves veterans with PTSD from suicide. Sen Campbell, Rep Stephanie Klick, District 91, and Lt Gov Dan Patrick conspired together to prevent a real medical marijuana program in Texas this lege session. We veterans reject their lies. We refuse to obey their unjust laws. We choose our healing plant instead of their 💊. 🇺🇸

the bubble always bursts. harder to fix when you owe trillions.

prayers in school is you solution. to then violence perpetrated against school children. You are a disgraceful hypocrite !!!! Resign you fool !!!!

The purpose of these ratings are to convince parents to take their kids to private school so money can be made. Our public schools are doing a fantastic job. Our government is doing a horrible job with social welfare. Any bad school grade is the government’s grade for providing resources needed to allow schools to be successful.

You know what's frustrating? As a teacher, we got them the week of professional development. It would have been much more helpful to get them much earlier in the summer, when we could have actually planned more based on the score feedback. You know, like how grades are actually supposed to work. They are not supposed to be punitive, they are supposed to be instructive.

Angela Paxton received an F in education. Leach received a C. We need to elect representatives that actually care about education.

Public education is a monumental failure, sky high property taxes, failing schools, liberal leftist indoctrination, privatize the entire education system. At least introduce school choice, and give parents the power to choose which schools their children can go to.

What is sad is that this is all derived from average results per student and is not at all indicative of the education you can receive at these schools. When you have most parents that treat school as free babysitting and are not at all involved in their kids' education it doesn't matter how good the teachers are, most of those kids will struggle.

Those ratings are arbitrt, ideopathic, and without any probative value.

This is ridiculous, part of the grade is based on attendance graduation rate and the useless staar test.

So badly that now have to resign to the facts the only jobs left to them will be Lieutenant Governor

Free medical and food stamps. Thank you Mr.Dan Patrick we want all 19billion illegals coming to texas and live in your neighborhood and get free food stamps they will direct traffic for you

The reason for our terrible performance is that evangelist parents hate education. Educated kids will question the Bible.

And what are u doing to improve the schools😝😝😝😝😝

and Texas still rates down there with TAlabama.

Are lower graded schools in zip codes in which you deny funding? Just asking

This idea should be gone with the wind

You should already know, if you cared.

I would give Dan an F.

I can see you becoming Suprintendent.

F. For all public schools.

Dan, you get an F! 😡

"Lock Dan up!"...

Ignore the Ratings, Read the Reviews The Texas Education Agency (TEA) released their school ratings last week. Ignore them. They tell you where poverty and vulnerability are in our state and district. They easily differentiate white schools from brown and black schools for folks looking to buy in whiter neighborhoods, preying on generations of inequity built into our public school system. They tell you which schools are dedicated to a testing system that requires hours and days of missing real opportunities for authentic learning to practice reading convoluted STAAR questions, learning to eliminate wrong answers, and other test prep strategies. These schools get certificate they post in their lobby to fool parents into believing they’re the best, instead of just the whitest or the most dedicated to the test. What they don’t tell you is everything that’s important to our public education system in Texas. They don’t tell you how mighty a challenge it is to help children learn to read who have no books at home and no one to read to them in English at night. They don’t tell you how hard educators work to overcome language and cultural barriers, let alone the developmental damage the stresses of poverty inflict on young, growing minds. They don’t tell you how frustrating it is for teachers to be forced to prepare their vulnerable children to do well on a test that is designed against them when they could be teaching them skills and knowledge that is designed to their needs. They don’t tell you how many nights of sleep teachers have lost worrying about the child who is suddenly homeless or fatherless or hopeless. They don’t tell you how many evenings and weekends counselors continued their important work to connect and support hundreds of children who desperately need it. They don’t tell you about all the administrators who take every child where they’re at, no matter what, and try to provide them the love and stability and knowledge they need to thrive. They don’t tell you how hard it is for a well-fed, well-rested child to sit for 4 hours, let alone one who isn’t. They don’t tell you how connected the children are to their school community, how much trust they have in their teachers, or how much hope their school environment gives them for their future. They don’t tell you how kind children in a school are. They don’t tell you whether the children are problem-solvers or creative or athletic or artsy or musical or fun-loving or empathetic or resilient or confident. They simply don’t tell you what’s important about a school or its educators. When you see rating on Great Schools or other places, ignore them. Go straight for the reviews. Read what parents say about the teachers, staff and environment. They tell a far more complete story about the things that are important inside the wall of that campus. And if you have time, go visit those schools and talk to the teachers and administrators who are doing the important and stressful work of educating inside poverty. Low rated schools aren’t bad. They’re struggling. And they’re suffering. And we can help them. It is important for us to really see them and understand what they’re dealing with, but we can no longer use TEA ratings to condemn them. It’s not okay, even if the state says it is. Public school parents, please learn all you can about standardized testing in general, the STAAR in particular, and what these are doing to our schools, our teachers, and our children. This is a political tool, not an educational one. Then, vote. Vote like the future of public education depends on it. Because it does.
