Commissioner of Education Mike Morath announced the formation of the Texas Rural Schools Task Force. Selected from the 20 Education Service Center (ESC) regions from across the state, task force members will be charged with identifying current challenges and best practices for rural school districts statewide. Task force members will meet over the next several months to share insights and seek opportunities for innovation in the areas of teacher recruitment, teacher retention, resource allocation, use of technology, as well as parent and community engagement.
