Education Champion

 TASA's Small Schools Network provides support — through customized professional development and networking events — to districts with fewer than 1,300 students. In-person events are hosted by small districts, where participants have the opportunity to visit campuses and learn directly from district leaders and educators how they are leveraging their strengths and overcoming challenges. A design team composed of leaders of small school districts from across Texas plans the network’s learning events. Carnelius Gilder, superintendent of West Sabine ISD, serves on that design team. Hear from him about his experience with the network.
