Much has changed in the area of school law since the first edition of The Educator's Guide to Texas School Law was published in 1986. This new tenth edition of The Educator's Guide offers an authoritative source on Texas school law through the 2021 legislative sessions. Intended for educators, school board members, attorneys, and taxpayers, it explains what the law is and what the implications are for effective school operations; it helps professional educators avoid expensive and time-consuming lawsuits by taking effective preventive action; and it serves as a highly valuable resource for school law courses and staff development sessions.

The tenth edition begins with a review of the legal structure of the Texas school system, incorporating recent features such as charter schools and districts of innovation, then addresses the instructional program, service to students with special needs, the rights of public school employees, the role of religion, student discipline, governmental transparency, privacy, parental rights, and the parameters of legal liability for schools and school personnel. The book includes discussion of major federal legislation, such as the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, and Title IX. On the state level, the book incorporates laws pertaining to cyberbullying, inappropriate relationships between students and employees, and human sexuality instruction.

Wife Mother Drunk is an intergenerational memoir recounting the author's harrowing struggle with alcoholism, tracing it back through her ancestry to the times of the pioneers when the seeds of trauma were first planted, long before they overtook her otherwise loving life.

After having her fourth and last baby, Emily Redondo found herself in rehab with a breast pump and a five-week old at home. On the surface, she looked like every other suburban mom, replete with dance bags and mini van, but inside, she was in a harrowing dance with alcoholism, drinking from morning until night, stealing alcohol from liquor stores, and finding herself arrested for a DUI with a four-year old in the backseat.

Wife Mother Drunk tells the story of Emily's decades-long battle against her disease while also confronting generations of inherited trauma and addiction. In this incredible book, Emily investigates those dusty-earth roots to understand how women process trauma, heartbreak, and centuries of putting their children before their own well-being. As Emily untangles the web of female addiciton in her own family line, she uncovers all the ways her life has become the ultimate consequence of others' unhealed trauma.

This is a book like few others on addiction, in that Emily doesn't just wake up sober one day. After twenty institutions, Emily walks an awkward yet gentle road towards recovery, even as she is forced to face the consequences of her own trauma, through heart-breaking diagnoses and the long-term neurological damage caused by alcohol.

Wife Mother Drunk is a searing, heartbreaking portrait of a woman caught in the grips of addiction but also a mother whose greatest hope is the love for her children.

At small or large scale, most strategies fail to deliver on their intended purpose despite talented leadership, capable experts, and sophisticated approaches. Why is that? The short answer is: complexity.

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Rebecca Yarros comes a slow-burn romance about love, family, and what it means to become the truest version of yourself.

Callista Moran has spent a lifetime putting her own plans aside to care for other people. Once she and Darren Knight announce their engagement, she thinks her future is finally set. But when a routine sailing trip goes tragically wrong, a cyclone blows those carefully made plans away.

Stranded on an island for the next eighteen months alongside the crew and her fiancé's cousin, Callista discovers a strength she never knew she had. And begins to question the life she always thought she wanted. With Dominic, an ex-army medic, she finds true peace--and a version of herself that she doesn't need to explain. They resist their connection at first, but as months wear on, and the hope of rescue fades, something real starts taking shape, built on who they are when everything else is stripped away.

When they're finally found, the world hasn't changed. But they have. In the height of a modern media frenzy, learning to live as the people they've become will challenge not only their definition of survival, but love.

An urgent examination of how violence against women is inextricably linked to other issues that stoke our greatest passions.

Every 90 seconds a woman is sexually assaulted. In that same minute and a half, another is a victim of domestic violence at the hands of a current or former intimate partner. Every sixteen hours, one of those intimate partners shoots and kills a woman. Nearly two in ten women are stalked, while one in sixteen is raped during her first sexual experience. Despite these jaw-dropping statistics, collectively we are well practiced at seeing such acts as someone else's problem. And yet, violence against women is tangled up with the most frequently discussed and debated issues of our time: healthcare and education access, immigration, gun policies, economic security, and criminal justice reform-issues that impact us all, nearly every day.

In Every 90 Seconds, Anne P. DePrince argues that to end violence against women, we must fundamentally redefine how we engage with it-starting by abandoning the idea that violence is a problem involving only those who abuse or are abused. Instead, DePrince illuminates how violence against women is inextricably linked to other issues that stoke our greatest passions. For instance, each time a woman requires emergency medical attention as a result of violence and abuse, our overburdened healthcare system bears an entirely preventable cost. Meanwhile, the threat of violence is a significant cause of pressure on the US southern border, driving women and their families to seek safety far from home. Violence against women also takes a stunning toll on the US economy by contributing to widespread poverty. Drawing on these and other complex examples, DePrince builds the case that this very complexity offers an opportunity for mobilizing ordinary people to work to stop violence against women in a way we never have before. DePrince's call to action arises out of the reality that when we address violence against women, we can make progress on a range of other significant issues that we care deeply about too.

Build a life that compounds.

What if the most important portfolio you will ever craft isn't financial at all?
