Show Notes

Just a few years ago, Houston ISD - HISD - was the worst performing public school district in Texas, as well as one of the largest. After a new Board of Managers was appointed, HISD has completely turned around, and now, no HISD schools are failing. 

Join Mandy as she interviews Cassandry Bandy, a courageous Houston mom of two who stepped up to the plate on the Board of Managers and helped bring academic achievement back to the families of Houston.
