DISD is promoting a rigorous curriculum that prepares students for college. Pay attention poster, the days of simply preparing students for TAKs is over. Unfortunately, the misinformation continues.

I also disagree that good teachers don't have time to prepare students.I witness the opposite daily. Great teachers make a difference regardless of the obstacles.

Yet, it's time for my daughter to enter middle school and I'm concerned. I'm tempted to send her to her home school, but hear horror stories about the discipline. I'm considering the magnet schools, but haven't decided. Travis has a new reputation of treating their parents and students badly, so I'm rethinking my options. How about you Allen, will you send your child(ren) to DISD?

[Ed Note: My kids do go (and have gone) to DISD.]
