Advocacy
TASB advocates on behalf of Texas public school boards so that members can have their voices heard and amplified at the local, state, and national levels.
Texas has a long tradition of local public school governance with community and parent involvement being key to the success of every school district across the state.
Whether you’re a school trustee, parent, taxpayer, or someone who is interested in advocating for public education, TASB has the tools and resources to ensure your voice is heard at the local, state, and national level.
Our goal is simple: We want to amplify support for public schools so that every child in our state has access to a high-quality public education.
Take a moment to look at the different ways TASB can support your advocacy efforts with initiatives geared to our members, as well as all Texans. Every voice matters, so let’s work together to strengthen our public schools — and build a stronger future for Texas.
