Tuesday, October 17, 2023 by Beth Bond
As the state Legislature carries out a special session on “school choice,” local school leaders, advocates and policy experts will take part in a discussion hosted by The Texas Tribune on what could come out of the session and how legislation could change things for students, parents, teachers and schools across the state. Speakers include Norma V. Cantú, professor of education and professor of law at UT-Austin College of Education; John Emerich, superintendent of Crockett Independent School District; and Corey A. DeAngelis, senior fellow at the American Federation for Children. “Public Education and the Special Session” is planned for 9 a.m. Wednesday, Oct. 18, online at texastribune.org and in downtown Austin in the Tribune’s Studio 919, located at 919 Congress Ave., sixth floor, 78701. The event will be livestreamed online and available to watch on demand afterward at texastribune.org/events. RSVP here to attend this free event.
