Texas Standard For July 22, 2020
The state’s largest school district has plans to start the year online and could extend that a little longer. Houston ISD’s interim superintendent joins us to talk about the weight of planning this school year. We’ll also hear from teachers who are frankly afraid for themselves and their families, but also love being in the classroom. And: A Texas law expert joins us to parse out exactly what’s going on with federal agents arresting people in Portland. Also: A harrowing story about COVID-19 and Texas ICE detention centers. That and more today on the Texas Standard:
