You are invited to join a virtual listening circle with JoLisa Hoover hosted by Austin Avanza Teachers of Color on July 16th at 4pm.  JoLisa Hoover is the Central Texas Regional Advocacy Director for Raise Your Hand Texas.   This summer, she is hosting virtual listening circles with parents, students and/or teachers to find stories and individuals who could help to paint a picture for legislators and staffers about…

• What ‘crisis schooling’ was like for families in the spring

• What their hopes and fears are for the upcoming school year 

• What they believe may be opportunities for their schools/districts in the midst of this fluid moment, where a lot is going to have to change anyway

In order to know which legislator represents you, please provide your address when you RSVP.  The link to the virtual session will be provided by email when you RSVP.
