Why the Texas Association of School Boards (TASB)
Established in 1949, TASB has grown alongside Texas to meet the evolving needs of the school boards it serves.
Today, 500 employees work together to promote educational excellence for Texas public schoolchildren. TASB offers high-quality services that help 1,023 school districts operate more efficiently and effectively in serving more than 5.5 million public school students statewide.
We feel privileged to work alongside talented team members who are passionate about putting people first and empowering local school district leaders. The TASB team is adaptable and responsive to the needs of our members.
Our culture is reflected in TASB Together, which guides the way we work and encourages employees to learn, grow, and contribute in alignment with our TASB Mission:
The Texas Association of School Boards promotes educational excellence for Texas schoolchildren through the advancement of good governance, valuable learning experience for school leaders, and public school advocacy. We also provide high-quality services and programs to school districts – helping them operate more efficiently and effectively.
