John Kuhn: Our Schools are Touchstones, and We Will Stand and Fight to Save Them

Two years ago we met superintendent John Kuhn, as a result of his booming speech at the Save Our Schools rally in the great state of Texas. Last Saturday, once again there were 10,000 people marching on behalf of public schools, brought together by Save Texas Schools. Once again, John Kuhn delivered. Please watch the video to hear his words.

I want to say something to teachers that our lawmakers should have said long ago: Thank You! Thank you for keeping our children safe. Thank you for drying their tears when they scrape their knees, for cheering on our junior high basketball players, for going up to your room on Sundays to get ready to teach my kids on Monday.Gracias por cuidarlos! As a dad, I thank you.
Coaches, thank you for fixing little girls' softball swings and for showing our boys how to tie their ties. Thank you
