Fund Public Schools
The continued success of the Texas economy requires strong, vibrant public schools. Now is the time for lawmakers to prioritize public education and fund our schools.
School Funding Myths
Some are pushing a false narrative about school funding with the goal of undermining public education. We're here to set the record straight.
Nonpartisan School Boards
Texans have always valued public education for their children. Just as important has been the belief that locally elected school boards are the best way to ensure that our public schools are accountable to their families and communities.
School Choice
Despite the escalating political rhetoric about taxpayer-funded private school vouchers, the truth remains: Texas public schools are the leaders in providing families with the most academic, athletic, career and technical, and extracurricular choices.
Parental Rights
Taxpayer-funded school vouchers are a bad deal for Texas parents and students. Parents would lose out on some key rights and protections if they chose to participate in a state-funded voucher program and send their child to a private or parochial school.
