Turning Good Public Policy into Strong Practice Across Texas

The Texas Impact Network exists to elevate the policies and best practices that allow rural, suburban, and urban districts alike the ability to unlock new resources on behalf of the students they serve.

Achieving More Together

 The Texas Impact Network collaborates with regional partners and local school systems to understand the impact and implementation of evidence-based state policies that unlock additional state resources to improve student outcomes while sharing best practices and sustainable solutions tailored to district needs.

What We Do

The Texas Impact Network is a joint initiative of the Commit Partnership and Educate Texas.

Our goal is to track Texas education policy from passage through implementation to impact. We do this by collecting stories of implementation from across Texas, so that we can share what school systems are learning, what is working and what needs to be fixed and use this to continually improve education policy across Texas. This began with the passage of House Bill 3 (HB3) in 2019 which provided innovative funding opportunities that target our state’s highest-need students with up to $4 billion in additional investments. We highlight pioneering school systems that are developing, implementing, and evaluating evidence-based strategies funded and incentivized by Texas state legislation.
