Show Notes

On Tuesday's show: Texas rewards school districts for preparing students for life after graduation, tying college and career readiness to more school funding and higher performance ratings. But a new report shows many college prep classes are failing to live up to their promise. We talk with the researcher behind the findings.

Also this hour: Amid concern about the fate of the former Garden Oaks Theater, we discuss historic preservation in Houston.

Then, we talk with an area immigration attorney about Houstonians pursuing dual citizenship.

And we preview Truth Be Told, a dance production Feb. 26-27 from Urban Souls Dance Company honoring the stories, ancestors, and cultural legacies that shape the Black experience.
