Schools are the center of our communities and can greatly support the needs of parents and citizens. As a result, most adults want to see their children in supervised programs for academic and recreational purposes after school. That is why the Senate Education Committee, of which I am a member, is monitoring the implementation of Senate Bill 104. That bill allows local school boards to keep school campuses, including libraries, open for recreational activities and tutoring after school hours. Our children must have the proper foundation to succeed.
Character development is a large part of that foundation.
Together, parents, teachers and all caring adults can help our children's character development and build that foundation by getting involved in our children's education. Address letters to Sen. David Cain, P.O. Box 12068, Austin, TX 78711. Or contact any of Sen. Cain's district offices in Greenville, Tyler or Dallas.
