The State Board of Education in Texas sets policies and standards for public schools, including curriculum, instructional materials, and graduation requirements. However, the document argues that the current chairperson appointed by the governor does not use public schools for her own family and has never worked in public schools, suggesting she may not be properly qualified to oversee public education policy. It encourages voters to become more informed about State Board of Education candidates and the governor, and to vote in all elections, not just popular ones, to affect change.
