What are they thinking?

I have tried to stay away from all the discussion about budget cuts in my blog, but today, I have to write about the state of Texas and their infinite wisdom to cut public education $10 billion dollars. What are they thinking?

The Countdown is on!

There are 29 school days until our first TAKS test! Yikes--the school year goes by so quickly. We spend the fall semester working on creating learners and working on culture. The spring semester, we fine tune and really prepare our students for the testing season. Our goal is to be an Exemplary campus. This is the last year for TAKS in Texas, and next year our students will take the new STARR test. So, this is it--this is our grand push to be an Exemplary campus, and we are excited, anxious, and nervous. I have all the right people in the right places, and our students are poised to do us all proud. I know we can do this, so let the countdown begin!
