texas 88 legislayive session

The 88th Texas Legislature will convene January 10, 2023 and remain in regular session until May 29, 2023. As public education is one of the largest entities in the state and its funding is second only to health care, the decisions of our legislators affect every community. Coppell ISD will be active in keeping you, our tax payers, informed and will work with our elected officials on proposed legislation that could impact the Texas public education system, our district and students.
