Field Service Agents

Field Service Agents provide technical assistance to superintendents and facilitate communication among districts, the Texas Education Agency (TEA), and ESC-20.

 

The Texas Legislature has mandated a course of training for all school board members. The goal is to prepare LEA board members and the superintendent as a leadership team to improve the academic performance of all LEA students. Region 20, a TEA authorized, certified, and registered professional development provider, is committed to providing services for all LEAs to help achieve this goal.  Some of the sessions that we provide are listed below:
