When State Policy Shapes Our Schools,
Community Voice Matters
Laws passed at the state level have a direct and lasting impact on Mansfield ISD students, staff, and families. Engage Mansfield ISD is designed to ensure parents and community members understand those impacts and have a meaningful role in the conversation. By connecting legislative issues to local classrooms and encouraging informed advocacy, this initiative helps turn community understanding into action on behalf of Mansfield students.
Our Why
To Strengthen Transparency and Access to the MISD School Board
Engage Mansfield gives parents and residents a clear way to connect with trustees, ask questions, and participate in the decisions shaping our district.
To Help Our Community Understand How State Decisions Impact MISD
Public education funding and policy begin at the Capitol. We want families to understand how those decisions work and how our collective voice can influence them.
To Show Our Commitment to Protecting the Future of MISD Students
At its core, this initiative reflects how deeply we care about our kids’ education, safety, and long-term opportunities, and our responsibility to advocate for them.
Coming Soon: Our Upcoming engagement sessions
The School Board is stepping into neighborhoods, campuses, and community spaces across Mansfield to meet with families, listen to concerns, and explain how legislative decisions impact MISD. These sessions are your opportunity to learn, ask questions, and shape the district’s advocacy efforts.
