Understanding Assets and Challenges of Rural Communities

Understanding Assets and Challenges of Rural Communities

Texas has the largest rural student population in the United States, with more than 1000 districts receiving a rural designation. Geographically isolated communities often have limited resource which can lead to challenges in staffing, advanced coursework offerings, and enrichment programs. Rural community can also face unique challenges with bussing and transportation, as well access to broadband and digital services. But rural schools are often situated in close-knit communities where schools foster strong and lasting relationships between educators, students, and families. Their small size can also allow for a more nimble and entrepreneurial approach that embraces regional collaboration with schools, employers and local government to meet educational goals. Join us for a conversation about the promise and peril of building the capacity of rural communities to support student success.
