Good morning from the State Board for Educator Certification! Today SBEC will be discussing new proposed teacher pedagogy standards as well as next steps forward for a potential Texas-specific performance assessment.
ATPE's Kate Johanns spoke with @KVUE about why educators have concerns about TEA's use of AI to grade open-ended STAAR questions. #txed kvue.com/article/news/e…
April 1 marks ATPE's 44th year of service to #txed! If you're not yet a member of Texas' largest community of educators, we have good news—our Spring Join Early Campaign launched today! atpe.org/join-now
I have a new ATPE Twitter account y’all! Please follow me @ATPE_TriciaC!
Had the honor of being part of a panel discussion today at Lone Star College Tomball on women in politics with my colleague @ATPE_JenniferM! Very much enjoyed the discussion and connecting with the students.
Fueled by unprecedented spending by out-of-state interests, Tuesday's primaries resulted in significant #txlege shakeup. More in-depth analysis is on the way. For now here's our by-the-numbers report 📉 teachthevote.atpe.org/Our-Blog/Lates… #txed
There’s still time! As long as you are in line by 7:00 PM today, you can still #vote for #txed!! Remember, many counties allow you to vote at any polling location - if yours does, head to the nearest one & VOTE! @TeachTheVote @TXParentPAC @LWVTexas @OfficialATPE
It’s a beautiful day to go out and vote for education-friendly candidates!
Go vote pro-#txed, if you haven't already! More than 5.4 million public school students are counting on you! Research candidates at ATPE's TeachtheVote.org. #txedvote @TeachTheVote
🗳️ It’s Election Day! Have you voted yet? ✅ Texas primary elections determine who will represent you in 90% of races. 💪 Low turnout means your individual vote has even greater impact. ⏳ Polls are open until 7pm. Let’s get after it! TeachTheVote.org #txlege #txed
One huge problem with voucher programs is the huge opportunity for fraud. Last week Arizona officials announced the indictment of five individuals who allegedly enrolled "ghost" children in Arizona's ESA program to siphon off funds. Another reason to vote pro-public ed tomorrow!…
ATPE's TeachtheVote.org contains profiles for each #txlege and #SBOE candidate, including survey answers, incumbent voting records on #txed issues, and other relevant info. Please encourage your personal network to use @TeachTheVote to research candidates before they vote!…
As you review campaign materials, it’s helpful to know which organizations are making endorsements and what they stand for. Today's primary election homework is a reading assignment from ATPE's @TeachTheVote: teachthevote.atpe.org/Our-Blog/Lates… #txed #txedVote
Early voting for the primary election is still in progress. Go vote for candidates who support TX public education @TeachTheVote #txed #txlege
"'Cause the players gonna play, play, play, play, play/And the haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate/Baby, I'm just gonna vote, vote, vote, vote, vote/I vote it off, I vote it off..." #txed #txedVote issuu.com/atpe/docs/24_n…
Good news if you have an idea for a professional learning session at the 2024 ATPE Summit: We've extended the deadline for proposal submissions to Friday, March 1! Please visit bit.ly/atpesummit2024 for all the details and to submit your session! #atpesummit #TxEd
Go vote everyone! Your public schools are counting on you!
