    Thanks to schools across Texas for opening their doors to displaced students. They are our greatest treasure #txlege http://www.twcnews.com/tx/austin/news/2017/08/30/texas-school-districts-welcome-student-evacuees-.html …

        Really? Prove it. Fund public schools more than 38%. Use the "Rainy Day Fund" to help public schools. Actions speak louder than words. #txed

        They are the cornerstone of our community, and today are sheltering children, elderly, families, and pets. FUND THEM. #thisispublicschool

        Public school districts accept all, whereas charters will not. And you let @DanPatrick try to sell out to special interest charters. #nice

        Yes. They are. So why won't you adequately fund them?

        Gov. Abbott, you should consider cancelling all STAAR testing this school year in light of so many students being affected by Harvey.

        Then why don't you fund them @GregAbbott_TX? Quit stealing from local taxpayers and up state share to 50%. Was 68% in 1986, now 38%. #txed

        And yet Texas legislature allocates as little as possible in the nation in spending per student, bottom 10 in US. Why?

        ? Isn't the GOP trying to defund public schools? You should thank schools by properly funding them. #txed #txlege #gopRepent
