Synopsis

A new edition of the most authoritative guide to Texas school law.

Over the past five years, the US Supreme Court, the White House, and the Texas legislature have collectively been responsible for seismic changes in the landscape of education in the Lone Star State. The eleventh edition of The Educator's Guide to Texas School Law is your up-to-date resource for understanding what the law is and what it means for effective school operations.

Intended for educators, school board members, attorneys, and taxpayers, the eleventh edition offers a comprehensive review of the evolving legal structure of schooling in Texas. Jim Walsh and Sarah Orman highlight pressing issues that educators encounter daily: What are teachers' and students' free speech rights? What about due process and religious exercise? Exactly how are teachers hired, and under what circumstances can they be fired? The Educators' Guide also explains the role of the school board and important dimensions of school district governance, including procurement and compliance with the Open Meetings Act. This latest edition focuses intensively on recent areas of reform, including parents' rights, special-needs law, and education savings accounts. More essential than ever, the Educator's Guide provides clarity in uncertain times.
