    I will demand that Texas improve services for special education students. Expect reforms soon. #txlege #educationhttp://kdhnews.com/news/education/texas-governor-orders-plan-to-improve-services-for-special-education/article_636eac6a-f713-11e7-898b-2ba23a90a532.html …

        Good. But let’s not pretend private school vouchers are any kind of reform. It would merely be more of the same: using our kids to score political points. Let’s strengthen our SpEd programs in our public schools so that ALL children have access to quality education.

        That would be reforms to the system you perpetuated with the commissioner you appointed, right? #BlockVote

        Why do you fault schools for a “dereliction of duty” when your agency set a cap of 8.5% and threatened state audit for non-compliance?

        In Texas, the school told me my daughter was ineligible for a speech IEP but gave me a list of private therapists we could go to. In Oregon, on day one, she was assessed and given an IEP & service. Bizarre, huh?

        You're right, I'm exaggerating unnecessarily. It all happened within a week or two of start of school. Point is - I was listened to as a parent and the statement responded promptly to provide service.

        I agree @GregAbbott_TX, hope you will also finally call for action on teacher insurance and retiree benefits. State employees are afforded great benefits but public educators, who help prepare our state's next workforce, are struggling and #txlege remains #AllTalkNoAction #PubEd

        Will it and other aspects of education be funded? Teachers are the starting place for all who make society great. When will they be taken care of?
