The campaign finance reports filed by all candidates in the Dallas ISD May 9th elections are exceptionally revealing and have generated significant media coverage: http://educationblog.dallasnews.com/2015/05/dallas-isd-school-board-candidates-have-raised-nearly-300000-so-far.html/
The range of fund raising was from nothing to $111,000 by this article.
But two organizations stick out in supporting those candidates who are presented as most strongly supporting Mike Miles and what he represents, Edwin Flores and Damarcus Offord. They are Educate Dallas and Dallas Kids First. Damarcus Offord is accurately presented in this article:

It is obvious that Educate Dallas and Dallas Kids First strongly support Mike Miles. They also do not want to acknowledge the data that is collecting about damage to education under Mike Miles.
