So basically activist prevent parents from getting their questions asked as their schools continue to fail. A majority of parents, by Fox's own polling, and yet this nonsense continues.

Womens want they free baby sitting … 👶🏾

So parents are proud that their kids can’t read? That their kids are t safe? They support the failing schools? Obviously this is why they need to be taken over. Too many local people don’t care. It’s all about politics and virtue signaling.

I’m surprised they don’t have a fleet of trucks driving slowly around Town announcing the takeover on repeat!

Thank you Dr. LiraSerg for speaking Truth! Tx Ed Agency is disrespecting the community. I was there and PROUD to witness the community reclaim their voice. This is just a preview of how TEA will attempt to disempower us. Not today. Not tonight. Not ever. HISD txlege txed

If TEA can’t run a meeting, how can it run HISD? (Editorial)The Texas Education Agency's public meeting in HISD was a scene of chaos and community... Just imagine what will happen when TEA imposes 'taxation without representation' on the people of HISD and directs their appointees to turn the district's schools over to charter school operators. They ain't seen nothing yet. Thank my God, the community is alive, fight, fight, fight.. Yes. Keep it up. There will be plenty of low paying jobs for the graduates of HISD keepHISDshitty
