Working as a team of eight in conjunction with the Superintendent, the 六合图库 Board of Trustees are an elected governance board with a shared sense of purpose focused on meeting the needs of all 六合图库 students and the communities they serve.
The 六合图库 of Innovation concept, passed during the 84th Legislative Session in House Bill 1842, gives traditional independent school districts most of the flexibilities available to Texas鈥 open-enrollment charter schools. The flexibility derives from the district鈥檚 ability to exempt itself from state mandates that may limit its ability to implement innovative ideas.
