The Texas Center for Student Supports (TCSS) is dedicated to establishing and implementing secure, inclusive, and supportive learning environments through a student support program structure tailored to meet the individual needs of each student, promoting their overall well-being.

Our focus is to establish and implement effective student support team structures through job-embedded professional learning, technical assistance, and coaching for the ESCs. The training platforms may include: Trainer of Trainers (ToT), online modules, or in-person sessions.

The Texas Center for Student Supports Advisory and Focus Groups were created to support the establishment and implementation of secure, inclusive, and supportive learning environments through a student support program structure that will be tailored to meet the individual needs of each student, promoting their overall well-being. The groups are a required component of the Student Support Program as stipulated in the TCSS grant.

The TCSS will develop a parent and family engagement playbook with resources and tools that LEAs can use to partner and build support with parents and families. The playbook will facilitate a student support partnership with parents and families prior to a student support team assessment and during the student support implementation process.
