Interested in serving on the Steering Committee?
Steering Committee Members consist of employees of a Texas Skyward School District who volunteer their time and labor. As a Steering Committee Member, you will be assisting in the review process of Product Ideas submitted for the software in use within the State of Texas.

Each Steering Committee Member also plays a vital role in the planning and execution of the TSUG Annual Conference.

The TSUG Steering Committee meets four times per year. Typically, two meetings are held in the greater Austin area, and two in more in the greater Dallas area. Attendance to these meetings is critical to the success of TSUG. If you are interested in serving, download and complete the membership application and return it to the Membership Coordinator.

When Are We Meeting to Plan the Next Epic Conference

The TSUG Committee is tasked with bringing their individual experiences and expertise to quarterly meetings to assist in making recommendations for Skyward software product improvements and enhancements. This is accomplished by bringing the perspective of numerous end users spanning across different district departments from school districts around the State of Texas.

The Committee is also tasked with providing support and planning for the annual TSUG Conference. These same individuals representing districts around the State of Texas work alongside Skyward Directors and Managers to plan for course offerings, staffing, conference strategies, vendors, and much more, including the overall attendee experience.

Our 2024 Committee-only meetings are scheduled for the following dates:

  • January Meeting: Monday, January 22, 2024 – Tuesday, January 23, 2024
  • April Meeting: Monday, April 22, 2024 – Tuesday, April 23, 2024
