Schools spend hours trying to “reach” the kid who openly doesn’t care, while the kid who tries every day quietly gets ignored. We’re exhausting ourselves chasing resistance instead of investing in effort.

The American education system is fixated on finding the latest method or system to get students reading and writing.
Unfortunately, no hack exists. Reading is sometimes dull. Writing is often hard.
You can’t entertain yourself to an education.

Dawgs Win 6-0. Let’s Go!! @Brooks_Nelson1 went 7IP, allowed 1H, struck out 9 on only 78 pitches. The offense racked up 12 hits, with @AntoscaCade going 4-4. Defense was lights out, with great plays made by @Mason_monty1324 and @talon_pate Dawgs move to 14-3-1, 4-0 in district

And who is not involved in this equation (but should be)? Because they don’t regulate a child’s consumption of a smart phone?

Teacher: Plans a great hands-on, fun lesson! Student: Slept for 2 hours the night prior because they’re addicted to TikTok Administrator: Comes in and notices uninterested, tired student and comments ‘’What do you think you can do for that student to make them more interested?”

I say this out loud about 4-5 times a year. Glad someone else agrees.

I should frame this ...

@Matt_Stepp817 Agreed. Venues should move up the shoot around start times.
English
@mrmcpherson I've definitely noticed it being an issue these last two years...venues either aren't prepped for the crowds that show up or they aren't moving up the private shootarounds..people shouldnt' arrive for a 7pm game at 615 and miss tip off

HS coaches and ADs unsolicitied advice...you'd make a lot more money if you'd open the doors for later round boys #txhsbb games earlier than 30 min before tip. Seen a lot of long lines waiting to get into arenas this week

@uiltexas Why are you putting commas where they don’t belong? It should be “Freshmsn Sydni Gaylor …”

@Matt_Stepp817 Can you fit 10 games in two days at the Alamodome?

What baseball player most contributed to you becoming a baseball fan?

@CBS11BillJones @THSCAcoaches @uiltexas Hosting the 2A Region II boys and girls tournaments was one of the top events every season.

Hoping there are influential @THSCAcoaches Athletic Directors & Basketball Coaches who will persuade @uiltexas to return to tried & true playoff format that made Texas HS hoops playoffs so great for decades — kids are missing out on a great playoff experience with 2 divisions!
Bill Jones@CBS11BillJones
Ridiculous decision by @uiltexas to split playoffs into 2 divisions. You have to do it in football; can only play once a week. But it makes no sense in basketball & other sports. No more regional tournaments, no state tournament & unlucky early round draws for top teams.
English
@Texas_HS_Sports @PhilHicksETFS Do you think going back to zones, like 4A and 1A had in the 70s and 80s, would help?
English
Here is a list of schools coming online in the next few years. Each campus will have 5A-6A capacity.
At some point, UIL will need to modify its setup. The easiest move would be to expand to 12A, turning each division into a classification. #txhsfb #NewSchoolRoundup
Matt Stepp@Matt_Stepp817
I've already got 12 new UIL football playing schools coming online in the 2028 #UILRealignment when does the bubble burst and the UIL's hand is forced? We are getting closer to that breaking point IMO #txhsfb @dctf
