Public Education

Public education impacts every community and every Texan. With more than 5
million students enrolled in public schools, what happens in our classrooms today
will shape the Texas economy tomorrow. Because public education is the largest
expenditure in the state budget, every legislative session puts a major focus on
schools and students.

New West Communications empowers school districts to better communicate
with their taxpayers, employees and legislators. We work closely with advocates
for public education at the Texas Capitol and ensure they have compelling, timely
messages to represent the needs of students. We also help districts who are
seeking voter approval for additional revenue through VATR and bond elections.
We understand the complexities of public school finance in Texas and we know
how to talk about them. We combine our experience in policy and politics to
create sharp, effective messages that reach and persuade key audiences. Our
clients include major school district associations and coalitions, as well as
individual districts and anyone else who needs help strategically communicating
the needs of their students and taxpayers.
