Begun by five mothers in response to SAISD plans to close Carroll Academy, Horace Mann Academy, and Travis Elementary Schools, the League for Public School Justice (L4PSJ) is acting as an advocate for the community and a watchdog.
On their website you will find information on wasteful spending within SAISD including a half million dollar garbage truck that according to them is not being used to eliminate costly contracts with private trash carriers. You'll also find questions about an SAISD contract with HeadStart.
Also interesting is a log of stories in the mainstream media concerning SAISD. Along with links to the story is pithy and pointed commentary on the story and the facts the story concerns.
On their website L4PSJ.org you will also find news on membership and activities.
You can follow founder Michelle Reyes on Twitter. Her tweets concern more than just the school district but seem to be up to the minute on SAISD developments.
