The Circus Is In Town

Dear Supporters:

Your support has enabled us to continue providing good information and support to parents fighting STAAR at the grass roots level.  Every two years we face a potential shift in the landscape when the Texas Legislature meets.  There will be bills, hearings and lobbying impacting all different areas of Education policy.  And it is the one chance we have to be heard by the representatives.

The 88th Legislature’s regular session runs from Jan. 10 to May 29, 2023.  Bills have already been filed targeting assessment issues and we’ll be bringing you an analysis of those bills.  One of the toughest things to do is figure out which bills are real and which are just for show.  We’ll be reaching out to the offices of the bill authors that we believe are positive to see how we can support the bills.
