Coordinating TACHE and Tejas Foco Conference Dates

by Tony D on 02/18/14

This year, this week, TACHE and Tejas Foco took place at the same time.

Especially now as we are all working to pressure the Texas State Board of Education, of course, we know it is wise to work together. This is a short note to reach out to coordinate the work at our current conferences and also to coordinate for next year.

Along those lines, as the Director of Intercultural Initatives for Lone Star College-North Harris, I am submitting a bid to bring the Tejas Foco to Houston in March of 2015. I wanted to make it to both events but could not. I'm sure there were many others in the same situation. Let's avoid that for next year.



1. Drafting a resolution for MAS:
Is TACHE drafting a resolution to endorse getting the Texas State Board of Ed. to put M.A.S. up for a vote at their meeting in April? If not, please do. You will have politicos attending TACHE. We will have 2 Texas State Board of Education members at the Tejas Foco. Let's trade notes during, and after. Let me know if you need some examples of current resolutions. 

2. Dates for next year:

I"m bringing the Tejas Foco to Houston next year March 2015. Let's touch bases to make sure we don't overlap. I'm looking at the first week in March 2015. Here is our preliminary website: www.TejasFoco2015.org

We've got a few folks who will be at TACHE who can help relay information.

Let me know what you think.
