White says goals include expanding pre-K programs
KILLEEN, TX
White spoke to the group on Saturday.
The Houston Democrat said his goals include the expansion of
pre-kindergarten programs and technical education at the high
school level, moving away from standardized testing as a measure of
competency and "creating a sense of emergency" when any student
drops out of school.
The Killeen Daily Herald reported that Gary Bledsoe, Texas State
NAACP president, praised White's leadership style as mayor of
Houston.
