Texas didn't just go blue. It fired a three-term governor who pushed vouchers, cheered book bans, and treated public schools like a problem to solve. Voters picked public schools instead. That is not a wave. That is a verdict, and it is about time.

2/2 Here’s a better investment: Universal public pre-K in EVERY Texas community and a Basic Allotment of at least $10,000 per student.
Smaller classes. Better educator pay. Stronger public schools.
Every child deserves opportunity, not just those who can access private schools.

It's Spooky Science season! 🎃 I built a 6-slide Halloween slideshow with 5 hands-on experiments: pumpkin volcano, ghost balloon, monster slime, witch's brew, and floating ghosts. Low prep, 5th grade ready, and it gets kids talking instead of watching.

The race between Paxton and Talarico might be grabbing headlines, but it’s not the race that matters most when it comes to #txed policy. It's the winners of local and state races who will set the policy affecting your classroom. Learn more on ATPE's Teach the Vote.

Abbott is celebrating $40 million for 411 Texas school systems. That is about $97,000 per system. You do not fix a teacher shortage or underfunded schools with a press release and couch-cushion money. Call it what it is: a photo op, not a plan. #txed #Teachers #ScienceEd

Friday is the last school day before Halloween. Still need a plan? Escape the Haunted Science Lab packs 6 challenges on light, circuits, and energy transformations into about one class period. Low prep, one six-digit code, zero chaos. TEKS 5.8B and 5.8C.

I turned circuits review into an escape room. My Circuit Detectives challenge gives 5th graders 4 circuit mysteries and one vault code to crack in 40-45 minutes. Low prep, STAAR-aligned, and it makes them think instead of memorize. ⚡🔐

My 5th graders can look up any science fact in 10 seconds. What they can't look up is whether to believe it. School still tests the lookup and skips the judgment. Facts are cheap now. Knowing how to test one is the whole job, and it is a very different skill.
