Lani Popp, a speech language pathologist at Kuentz Elementary, has been named KSAT12's Educator of the Month.

The Texas State Board of Education sets curriculum standards for Texas public schools, and its makeup will change after Tuesday's election. But Republicans appeared poised to keep control of two other seats Texas Democrats wanted to flip this year. Currently, the 15-member education board seats 10 Republicans and five Democrats — with eight seats in play this year. Popp also picked up the support of Texas Values, a conservative statewide advocacy group, which recently urged the board to adopt abstinence-focused sex education. The board is weeks away from revising Texas' sex education policy, its first attempt to do so since 1997.

Social mediaNo one on the Texas State Board of Education wants conspiracy theorist Robert Morrow to join their ranks and Tuesday's runoff election may give them their wish. All nine Republicans on the 15-member board endorsed Popp, including its chair, Keven Ellis, who tweeted Tuesday morning, "THOSE IN SBOE DISTRICT 5, SAY NO TO ROBERT MORROW. In March's primary, Morrow won 40% of the vote to Popp's 34%, bumping candidate Inga Cotton, a parent activist, out of the race but forcing a runoff. The victor will face Rebecca Bell-Metereau, a Texas State University English and film professor who narrowly lost to Mercer in 2016. Disclosure: Texas State University has been a financial supporter of The Texas Tribune, a nonprofit, nonpartisan news organization that is funded in part by donations from members, foundations and corporate sponsors.
