What are we fighting for?
[en español clic aquí]
End the takeover and restore local control.
- The takeover is not improving student learning.
- An elected board is accountable to local voters, a hallmark of our democracy. The Board of Managers is accountable only to Mike(s) Miles and Morath.
Strong and meaningful student achievement
- Inquiry-based curriculum, equitably accessed across the district
- Fully functional libraries that support academic progress and student curiosity
- Ending the over-reliance on high-stakes STAAR testing
High-quality, respected teacher corps
- Certified teachers with college degrees
- Autonomy in the classroom so that the differentiated needs of students are met
