College Advisory Board The growth in enrolments in recent years and the increase in complexity of education have led the trustees of the College to seek an increased role for the school community in the governance of the school.
Board of Education members have staggered terms so that the board maintains a number of veteran trustees as new members are elected.
Active Members are public school boards and the boards of the 20 Education Service Centers who have paid current annual dues.

School board members are required by Texas law and Commissioner of Education rule to participate in three types of continuing education: an orientation to local district policy and to the laws affecting public education in Texas; an annual team building activity, taken in conjunction with the rest of the Board and the Superintendent; and a specified number of hours each year in areas of special need.
County boards of education may only authorize the expenditure of funds and incur obligations in accordance with the budget and expenditure schedule which have been approved by the State Board of Education and formally adopted by the Board of Education at the meeting held the third Tuesday in April.
The Board of Education authorizes the school superintendent to inform parents, students and the public of the policy and to exercise their administrative resources to implement the policy as well as to deal with individuals who violate it.
