School Board Recognition Month

2027 School Board Recognition Month

Each January, we honor the dedicated individuals who volunteer their time to serve their communities as school board members. School boards oversee the operation of local public schools and work to ensure students receive a high-quality education. School Board Recognition Month is an opportunity to show trustees how much we appreciate their service, leadership and commitment to strengthening our public schools. 

2027 Theme — Our Future Is Public: Local Leadership. Lasting Impact. 

Through their leadership and service, school board members help shape the future of their local schools and communities. Their decisions make a lasting impact on students today while helping prepare the future workforce and strengthen communities and the Texas economy. 

Our Future Is Public is a year-round campaign that celebrates Texas public schools and elevates success stories from districts across the state. During School Board Recognition Month, Local Leadership. Lasting Impact. highlights the important role trustees play in building strong schools and creating opportunities for students to succeed.
