This week On The Record, host Randy Beamer delves into the latest efforts by the Texas State Board of Education to get a social studies curriculum approved amidst pushback from conservatives and Republicans. District 3 board member Marisa Perez-Diaz is the guest.
Then, what do the changes in the governing board of the San Antonio Chamber of Commerce mean? President Richard Perez explains how the new, smaller board will help them handle key issues in the city more efficiently. One issue they are working on is getting back tax abatement funds when the recipients have not fulfilled their promises.
Randy takes a camera out to Brackenridge Park, and offers up a great story about how many local people are finding they have deep roots to the park. It’s thanks to more and more people doing DNA testing and realizing where their ancestors are from, and some walked right through the area now known as Brackenridge Park.
Finally, on Reporter’s Roundtable, Ed Arnold, Managing Editor of the San Antonio Business Journal, talks about their new in-depth series on water in SA, and explains why businesses here must act now to develop real water conservation in order to protect our city’s future.
