Empower Schools created The Texas Partnerships Toolkit, bringing together statewide data, local examples, and practical tools to help communities understand how Texas Partnerships work, what they are accomplishing, and what high-quality implementation can look like.

Texas Partnerships use Senate Bill 1882 to give school districts a way to collaborate with nonprofit organizations, higher education institutions, and government entities to create autonomous, in-district public schools. These schools remain part of their districts while gaining flexibility to build programs responsive to local students and communities..

In this resource:

  • The Texas Partnerships Ecosystem Report, with statewide SB 1882 Texas Partnership results, trends, and updates

  • The Data Explorer, with campus-level results and information about Texas Partnership schools across the state

  • Case studies and profiles highlighting great Innovation Schools and the partnerships supporting their success

  • A communications toolkit with messages, fact sheets, frequently asked questions, and customizable materials to help your community understand SB 1882

  • Additional SB 1882 and Texas Partnerships reports, guides, examples, and resources from Empower Schools
