Unpaid. Unpopular. Yelled at in public meetings and browbeaten by the Texas Education Agency. On Thursday nights they receive a huge folder full of campus data that they have to wade through before the long board meeting on the following Monday night. Why anyone would want to sit on the Austin Independent School District board of trustees is a puzzler, but these nine brave souls give up countless hours of their lives to navigate the maze of educational administration in this state and keep our schools open.
