The Texas State Board of Education is an elected executive agency of the Texas state government, responsible for managing the state's public K-12 education.

Current officeholders

The board is composed of 15 members elected to four-year terms to represent one of the state's 15 education districts. Education district borders are redrawn every 10 years. The first time members meet after getting elected to redrawn districts, seven members selected at random have their current terms shortened to two years, meaning that their seats come up for election in different years than the other eight. Elections are held in even-numbered years.

Every two years, the governor selects a chair from among the board's members. The nominee for chair must be approved by the Texas State Senate. If a board member serves two consecutive two-year terms as chair, they are not eligible to be named to the position until four years have passed. Every two years, the board elects a vice chair and secretary from among its members.[1]

Authority

The Texas State Board of Education derives its authority from Article 7, Section 8 of the Texas Constitution.

Texas Constitution, Article 7, Section 8:

The Legislature shall provide by law for a State Board of Education, whose members shall be appointed or elected in such manner and by such authority and shall serve for such terms as the Legislature shall prescribe not to exceed six years. The said board shall perform such duties as may be prescribed by law.

Qualifications

Qualifications for serving on the Texas State Board of Education are laid out in Section 7.103 of the Education Code of Texas.[2]

  • Members of the board may not hold other public office. This also applies to candidates seeking election to the board.
  • Candidates seeking election to the board must have lived in their district for at least one year as of election day.
  • Candidates seeking election to the board must be registered to vote in their district
  • Candidates seeking election to the board must be at least 26 years of age.
  • Registered lobbyists representing interests relevant to the board may not serve on the board.

Section 7.103:

(a) A person is not eligible for election to or service on the board if the person holds an office with this state or any political subdivision of this state.

(b) A person may not be elected from or serve in a district who is not a bona fide resident of the district with one year's continuous residence before election. A person is not eligible for election to or service on the board unless the person is a qualified voter of the district in which the person resides and is at least 26 years of age. (c) A person who is required to register as a lobbyist under Chapter 305, Government Code, by virtue of the person's activities for compensation in or on behalf of a profession, business, or association related to the operation of the board, may not serve as a member of the board or act as the general counsel to the board.

Elections

Elections to the Texas State Board of Education are held in every even-numbered year. Every ten years, the state's education districts are reapportioned in light of the census. All fifteen seats on the board are elected in the first even-numbered year following the reapportionment. At the first meeting following the election, seven members of the board are selected at random. Those members have their current terms shortened to two years, meaning that for the next decade the seven districts represented by those members hold elections in different even-numbered years than the eight districts represented by members whose terms were not shortened.[2]

Term limits

There are no term limits to the Texas State Board of Education.
