How many teachers were invited to complete the Required Reading Survey? Tricky one...

How many teachers were invited to complete the required reading survey? 

Technically - all of them. 

Practically - few. 

You see, TEA has these things called listservs. You have to sign up for them. Most teachers aren't signed up for them. Some supervisors are. But a lot of that info never makes it to the classroom. 

TEA maintains subscriber counts. But they don't make that public. 

So - technically, TEA didn't directly invite anyone to complete the survey. 

Most teachers may have "heard" something is coming. Others will be completely surprised and gobsmacked. And most of them won't realize we can still influence what's going to happen. 

Contact your people: Holler loudly. Holler long. Holler often. #localcontrol #teacherinvolvement #followthechild
