Effective Schools Framework
The goal of the Effective Schools Framework (ESF) is to provide a clear vision for what districts and schools across the state do to ensure an excellent education for all Texas students. The framework, based on years of educational research of best practices, identifies 5 levers essential for successful school outcomes.

Texas School Boards
Texas school districts and charters are overseen by school boards. The boards of independent school districts are elected by the citizens of their communities, while the boards of charter schools are appointed.

Aligned Frameworks
As part of TEA's strategic planning process, we are committed to providing tools and resources focused on improving student outcomes. The agency continues to work on coherence and alignment across frameworks that are utilized in the field.
