        Not that education at #HoustonStrong isn't important but I think there are other items higher on the priority list. God bless all involved.

        It has to do with them only being able to miss a certain # of days without having to make them up at the end of the year costing extra tax $

        Isn't tax $ the least of worries & why wouldn't/couldn't the feds cover the cost? Education is important but these are special circumstances

        Agreed, but IMHO more important to get people housed. Hard for kids to concentrate on school w no real home to live in. JMHO. #houstonmayor
