State Board of Education (SBOE) elections this year
This year all 15 seats on the State Board of Education are up for election. As Democrats, committed to a public school system that teaches valid, objective, and historically accurate information, we need to focus on supporting candidates for the SBOE who will empower Texas students with an education that adequately prepares them for the world and the job market they're facing. The Texas Freedom Network is tracking the SBOE elections and you can follow their site at this link: TEXAS FREEDOM NETWORK STATE BOARD OF EDUCATION.
