Bill's Education Plan

  • Expand access to pre-K programs for Texas children by revisiting bipartisan early childhood education legislation vetoed by Gov. Perry.

  • Offer voluntary summer education programs -- such as the effective Summer Opportunity Sessions we pioneered in Houston -- to stop summer learning loss.

  • Increase the high school graduation rate by matching working students with jobs close to school and bringing students who have already dropped out back up to grade level.

  • Improve access to higher education by addressing skyrocketing tuition rates for both two- and four-year college degrees.

  • Prepare Texas to thrive in the 21st century, global economy by closing the digital divide in Texas classrooms, investing in our research universities, and providing incentives to pursue degrees in math, science, and engineering.
