The Killeen Independent School District board of trustees approved an increase to Teacher of the Year prize payments at the regular school board meeting Tuesday evening.
For the past decade, KISD has participated in the Texas State Teacher of the Year program which awards Teacher of the Year honorees with a monetary gift annually.
This year, the district is retroactively awarding prizes to the 2019-2020 Teachers of the Year.
âWe want to celebrate our teachersâ success,â KISD Superintendent John Craft said.
Tuesday, the KISD school board unanimously voted 6-0 to more than double the Teacher of the Year winnersâ checks from $2,000 to $5,000. Board member Shelley Wells was absent Tuesday and unable to vote.
Engaged china s authoritarian leaders. and mike pence s criticism of the nba today is the harshest that we ve heard from the trump administration. listen to this. it is siding with the chinese communist party and silencing free speech. the nba is acting like a wholly owned sub 1id dear of that authoritarian regime. and so my question to vp pence, if you take issue with global companies doing business in china now that you have called out the nba, are calling out apple, disney, delta, and every other company? to say that the nba is wholly owned by china, remember, the nba is not back in good standing with china. cctv is the largest broadcaster in the world. it reaches 300 million homes in china. they did not air the first two preseason games. and we do not know what they are going to do with the entire 2019/2020 season. the biggest revenue stream that the nba gets in terms of their
Super tuesday, where more than 40% of the delegates will be chosen. again, if you don t come in the top three in iowa, or in new hampshi hampshire, i don t see where he ll get the fuel to go forward. he has a lot of name recognition. he s a strong contender in the democratic field. but there are other contenders on the ground laying stakes in iowa and new hampshire. dana: rudy giuliani, he decided to go straight to florida. maybe we ll get to a point where early states don t matter, but i don t think 2020 is it. i ll give you the final word. when you look at 2019/2020, where we are, joe biden has to come in number one in iowa. it s not a question of top three. if he doesn t come in number one, people will say all those fatal flaws have doomed him. he should come in number one. something would have to happen that s dramatic for him not to at this point. maybe that will happen. but he s not a top three.
This. this is actually just the repeal bill. yes. so when you look at this and you see this number and then you compare it to the repeal and replace bill where the numbers aren t too far off in terms of people losing insurance, what does that tell you that there isn t really that different of a scenario between the two? what it tells me, though, also is the anxiety that is hanging over people right now waiting to see what s going to happen. if you just repeal and there is no plan to replace, you know, right now a lot of employees, they negotiate years out for their health insurance. so if you re going to repeal and you don t have a plan for the next two years, a lot of them are negotiating into 2019/2020, and so that uncertainty will actually increase the cost of health care. so, again, i think there is an opportunity now for us to work together. they don t have the support of the american people to repeal. why don t we strengthen what we have rather than continue to
