Keeping children's interests first
This year, the Dallas ISD Board of Trustees faced tremendous challenges: substantial  budget cuts, staff reductions and reallocating resources. These challenges were,  in their own way, a blessing as they forced trustees to focus on our core priority: educating children.

Next steps for building on DISD success
People ask me, “What’s the biggest surprise you’ve had in your first months as mayor?” It’s how much progress we’re making on the education front. No one is declaring victory, but I’m pleased about the sense of urgency and commitment throughout the community to face this issue head on. Many others are breaking new ground as well...DallasKidsFirst [was] recently created to remove barriers — financial and others — for qualified trustee candidates to serve.
