January is school board recognition month in Texas, a time set aside to remember the men and women across the state who donate countless hours to service at our public schools.

As the Texas Association of School Boards‘ press release reads:

Texans benefit every day from the tireless work and countless hours contributed by a group of more than 7,300 men and women in communities across the state. These local volunteers are elected by their constituents and receive no compensation for their work as public servants. These men and women are the school board members of Texas.
