Changes to the Model Student Handbook 2026

Join TASB Policy Service for a timely and practical webinar on updates to the TASB Model Student Handbook (MSHB), a must-have resource for Texas school districts preparing for the 2026–27 school year. 

Enrolling in this webinar also gives you exclusive access to a step-by-step video that shows districts how to customize their student handbook and includes practical guidance on formatting and customization tools to create a polished, helpful resource for your students, parents, and staff.

Your student handbook sets the tone for the year and serves as a critical tool to:

• Clearly communicate rules and expectations
• Strengthen trust and transparency with students and families
• Ensure compliance with current legal requirements

The MSHB, available to Policy Service subscribers, is designed to keep your district aligned with the latest legal standards. With recent rule changes now in effect, this session will walk you through:

• Key updates that impact your handbook
• Priority revisions and areas to review
• Practical guidance for implementation

You will also have the opportunity to engage directly with a TASB policy consultant and get answers to your specific questions.

Keeping your handbook accurate and up to date helps protect your district, reduces confusion, and supports a confident start to the school year.

Fee: $50

After registering with Zoom, you will receive a confirmation email with a link to join the webinar. This link is good for one user; multiple users from your district will need to register separately. Check out the Training and Events Calendar for more training opportunities.
