@coachkevinrich @BradBuckleyDVM @Schoolcraft4TX @GregAbbott_TX @FairlyForTexas @KingForTexas @kevinsparkstx I hope you aren’t holding your breath for that data…

I cant wait to see the academic STAAR accountability scores and the FIRST financial ratings for this academy. Unbelievable that taxpayer money is going to this type of "education". @BradBuckleyDVM @Schoolcraft4TX @GregAbbott_TX @FairlyForTexas @KingForTexas @kevinsparkstx

The Bennett School is the first high school and middle school sports academy of its kind in the Houston area. Utilizing the Alpha School curriculum — a two-hours-per-day learning model powered by artificial intelligence — students are able to complete the academic portion of their day in the morning and spend the afternoon focusing on baseball development. 🔗bit.ly/4c4fME6

@CoxHerb @SarahEckhardtTX I’m flabbergasted by this news. I guess “no one saw this coming.”
English
Texans were sold on the notion that vouchers would serve the kids who needed them most to "escape" failing public schools.
But now that applications are closed, the data shows 73% of applicants are already enrolled in private or home schools.
We are hurtling toward an outcome that was predicted from the very start: a massive transfer of our public money into private hands with no accountability. #txlege

@coachkevinrich @GovHotWheels_TX I rarely vote Republican anymore. I guess I’m officially an Independent.
English
@GovHotWheels_TX I dont fear the policies of Texas democrats. I fear the policies of Republicans in Texas....and I vote Republican.
English
In Texas, we are known for cowboys and capitalism.
If the Dems have it their way, socialist policies would change that. They're seeping into our state and working hard to leave their mark.
We won't let that happen.

All of them ignored all of us and did what Abbott and Trump told ‘em to do.
Texans should have been allowed to vote on this scam but they knew how wildly unpopular vouchers were and just shoved ‘em down our throats anyway.
Thanks, Abbott.
This will come back to haunt you in Nov.
Melinda Buchanan@ML_Buchanan
Thanks, @AndyHopperTX, for ignoring all of the phone calls, letters, and emails that BEGGED you not to vote for vouchers.

I’m gonna need some seed money to open my school based on Dudeism. My DMs are open

The Texas comptroller has accepted several Islamic private schools into the state’s voucher program after the institutions sued to gain admittance. [TX Republicans intended public money for private religious schools — Christian, not Islamic.] sacurrent.com/news/texas-new…

@coachkevinrich @BrendaHowardMus @HicklandHillary @DanPatrick Dang it. I thought we were done with Brenda.
English
@BrendaHowardMus @HicklandHillary Arizona Brenda showing up again. Why are we FOLLOWING other states? Texans have always been independent. I guess it is migrants from other states like Brenda and @DanPatrick that come in and blow up education instead of tweaking it to make it better for all.
English
Thank you @HicklandHillary
This has always been about empowering parents with choices. Folks can pick holes in any program but this worked for my son in Arizona and it will work for students in Texas. #txlege Competition lifts all boats. 🍎❣️🍎

Exactly this. Greg has become more unhinged than usual.

Trolling @jamestalarico isn't lowering my property taxes, car/auto insurance rates, fixing water shortages, funding public education. What in the hell is the republican platform nowadays other than unholy hatred and bitterness?

AND WHO TF KEEPS VOTING FOR GREG ABBOTT😩

@coachkevinrich @CoxHerb @BradBuckleyDVM Meanwhile the state is shocked they are being sued for not including Islamic schools in the scam.
English
I dont want to hear voucher people say they are leaving public schools because of better academic outcomes when these are the kind of outfits our tax money is going towards. This just further confirms the opportunity for corruption is alive and well. #moneygrab @BradBuckleyDVM
Calvin Tillman@mayortillman
Looks like the #txlege #SchoolChoice #vouchers can be used for “elite sports training”. That’s not how this was portrayed and is turning into a complete 1 billion tax dollar #boondoggle.

One of the many things I appreciated about @coach_perryman. He holds our boys to the Cowboy Standard and keeps them accountable—without a big production or fanfare.
Randy Jackson@CoachJacksonTPW
This made me smile so I had to share… I’m doing a Follow Me customization for a 6-man program in West Texas — the Happy Cowboys. One of the pictures hc @coach_perryman sent included this sign that said: “You Ain’t No Cowboy.” So I texted him: “Coach… I’ve gotta know the story behind this sign.” His response was gold: “Haha that’s our discipline dice poster. If a player gets detention or any other infraction, he rolls two dice. We always have a freshman that asks how you get ‘free ice cream.’ But the real part is the accountability piece… if you mess up, the rest of the guys get to tell you all day — ‘you ain’t no cowboy.’” Coaches could all make more money selling copiers…but getting to build a culture like this is way more fun. 🤠 @HappySportsNet @fastnwide @BlueprintMP

@MillerForTexas If you’re going to talk about Christian values then you should try modeling them first.
English
Texas and Christian values are incomparable with political Islam. It is a scourge on our people and our culture which must never be given the chance to take root in our state.

@RogersForTexas And let’s remember he was more worried about school choice than ag matters. After the panhandle wildfires he told a preacher to go jump in a lake. Hopefully he can follow his own advice and do the same.
English
Rural Texans, when you vote for Ag Commissioner, remember this coprophagous grin and the unhinged ad about hunting (shooting?) the Rural Republicans who support Public Education.
English
@MrsLAinsworth Don’t forget telling a pastor to go jump on a lake. Sid’s record of leadership is a dang short one.
English

Does “Record of Leadership” include trashing Texas public schools and the people that work there? I recall the awful things he spewed.

@natesheetsforTX @GregAbbott_TX Well there goes my vote. I just wanted to vote against Sid Miller anyway. But I’ve washed my hands of anything Greedy Greg is involved in.

Proud to stand with Gov @GregAbbott_TX as we fight for Texas agriculture. Together, we’re restoring integrity, upholding the rule of law, and backing the farmers and ranchers who feed the world. I’m ready to get to work for Texas.
English
@AbbottCampaign The same TX public schools that he was bashing just YESTERDAY?
English
Texas is the model for top-tier career training.
Businesses come to Texas because they know our schools are preparing students with the skills that drive a successful career.
Governor Abbott leads the charge to provide top-tier career training Texas: govgregabbott.substack.com/p/governor-abb…

This right here. The response from Lt Dan will be, “but the public wanted it. They said they wanted school choice.” Dear readers, the public had no idea how shady that “choice” would be.
Tim@Tim_TX_Aggie_96
@DanPatrick If they left this vote to the public “School Choice” would have failed miserably. This was setup to provide a handout to those parents already sending their kids to Christian private schools many which earn > $250k More than 85% of applicants already attend private school.
English
It seems like we warned people about this…
David DeMatthews@DrDeMatt
TX lawmakers claimed vouchers would help low‑income families but designed & implemented a system prioritizing the wealthy. Not an accident but a predictable result of a policy bought by billionaires & the politicians who serve them. @TexasAFT @jamestalarico @GinaHinojosaTX
