Derek McDaniel

Director of Curriculum and Instruction, Hays CISD

With HB 5,

we were told to align secondary, post-secondary, and career outcomes, with very little resources or guidance. Through the Math Alignment Taskforce, we’ve made more progress in the last four months than we have over the previous five years in aligning math pathways!

Bobby Jenkins

President, ABC Home and Commercial Services

 Nobody does data

for Central Texas students and for education better than E3. I think the data they provide is so valuable and so useful to everyone in the community, particularly the business community and the educators that without that we wouldn’t be nearly as progressive as we currently are.
