National School Board Appreciation Month

January 1, 2024 by melaniemorgan

Each January, we honor the community volunteers who serve on their local school boards.

In Texas, school board members are elected by community members who trust them to do what’s best for students. This connection ensures that board members are accountable to local voters, attuned to the needs of their communities, and dedicated to a brighter future. Thank you Southside ISD Board of Trustees!
