Dr. Judy Jennings: a passion for educational excellence

Dr. Judy Jennings is running for the State Board of Education, District 10, a far-reaching district spanning from Austin to the Houston suburbs.

Dr. Jennings and her husband, Hal, have two children who attended Round Rock schools and two grandsons who are currently in preschool. Her daughter is a public school teacher in Williamson County and her son just returned from teaching English in South Korea.

Dr. Jennings is currently the Director of Curriculum and Assessment at Resources for Learning, where she works to support teachers and schools. She has worked both for the Texas Education Agency and in the private sector on accountability and assessment issues.

Dr. Jennings has a Ph.D. in Educational Psychology from the University of Texas at Austin and has worked in the field of education for almost 15 years.

Judy understands that Texans depend on our education system to provide students with the knowledge and skills to succeed in a 21^st century economy. She knows that it is the State Board of Education’s job to provide educational leadership for our schools, through strong curriculum standards and factual textbooks that are free of extremist ideology.

“As a board member, I’ll listen to parents and teachers and work with them to improve our public schools. I will serve on the board as an educator, not a partisan, because partisanship has no place in the classrooms of our neighborhood schools. I will work hard to develop a public school system worthy of our great state.”
