In the guidance released Tuesday evening, the education agency said students, teachers or school districts participating in “inappropriate political activism” could face the following consequences:
- Students being marked absent and districts losing state funding.
- Educators being investigated and disciplined, including losing their teaching license.
- Districts facing state oversight, including the replacement of an elected school board with a board of managers.

Attorney General Ken Paxton on Monday requested documents from Austin ISD on student leave policies and internal communications during Friday’s protest and accused district officials of encouraging students to participate.
Hundreds of students also walked out of schools Monday in Hays Consolidated Independent School District, during which two students were arrested by police and several others got into a physical altercation with a passerby. The district denied any connection to facilitating or condoning the walkouts and asserted that “future walkouts cannot happen.”
“inappropriate political activism”
These literal children have more backbone and moral fiber than the entire US Government, and I am so fucking proud of every last one of them.
Our AG is such a massive POS. Fuck TEA.
Fuck TEA, Fuck ICE. Try being part of the constitutional legitimacy, not the nazi fascist magat illigitimocracy!
They are also going directly after these courageous kids online, straight up bullying them in the most disgusting ways possible.
The utter hypocrisy of folks in the US accusing people of fomenting student protests.
