Last week’s Austin County Commissioners Court was not simply a meeting but, one that focused on teaching.  Seniors from all the High Schools in Austin County:  Brazos ISD, Bellville ISD, Sealy ISD, and Faith Academy, were invited to come and take part in a question and answer forum.  The Commissioners, County Judge and heads of the different departments of county government were seated to take questions of them.  For a twist, the students were allowed to not only ask questions openly but, were also allowed to “tweet” questions via Twitter.
