    4 in 10 Texas school teachers have to take a job outside the classroom during the school year to meet family expenses. Considering everything they do for our kids, let's finally start paying teachers a living wage.http://www.tpr.org/post/texas-taking-care-its-teachers …

        We are 47th in education. I like me some Beto but I want to know, what are your intentions to fix that? The 2nd biggest state cannot the third dumbest anymore.

        And what say you @tedcruz ? "Well, teachers don't have it so bad. They get summers off. Wish I did!" Ah, sir, you spent your summer playing basketball remember? Right after you told parents you'd do everything humanly possible st SFHS. "Why do you keep bringing up the past?"pic.twitter.com/08u72kprHD

        It's a good bet Ted Cruz does not work as hard all year long, as even most substitute teachers getting part of the summer off. Besides, most teachers continue their education during the summer months.

        But how are we going to destroy public schools and force everyone into Christian schools if we do that?

        Plus, even if the kid COULD get into the school, the school can decide not to take him (something public schools CAN'T do), and transportation becomes an issue. Most low income parents rely on bus transportation for their kids to get to school.

        I come from 4 generations of educators. My father worked 2-3 jobs. I always missed seeing him. Summers - no paycheck & he worked in a gas station for minimum wage. No summer vacations. 💛Lots of love & guidance💛 Teachers don’t get either the respect or the pay they deserve.
