        @GregAbbott_TX As long as we can grade our legislators and leaders in Austin and that grade means something. How about paying our teachers?

        @GregAbbott_TX Mr. Abbott, it is time to teach the children in Texas in a developmentally appropriate manner.

        @GregAbbott_TX I read the arguments against NOT GRADING, and I don't buy any of them. It's time we assign a letter GRADE. I am in support.

        @GregAbbott_TX I'm interested in what "other" criteria, too heavy on std. Testing will widen the gap to real learning which we already lack

        @GregAbbott_TX I could be wrong but I doubt you will see much support for grading schools A to F based on student standardized test scores.

        @GregAbbott_TX they are graded. Why do you think that some schools are closed and taken over?
