2025-2026 SP Supports 3: Title III Engagement: Empowering Families of EB Students Grant

The 2025-2026 SP Supports 3 program by the Texas Education Agency aims to empower families of emergent bilingual (EB) students through effective engagement activities. The initiative focuses on providing educators and families with training and resources to enhance collaboration in instructional decisions. By leveraging statewide in-person and virtual training, the program seeks to strengthen school systems' internal practices for engaging families, ultimately fostering a supportive environment for EB students.

The purpose of this program is to assist the TEA Emergent Bilingual Support Division in leading statewide efforts to support school systems in implementing effective parent/family/community engagement activities that lead to empowering families of emergent bilingual (EB) students. The grantee will leverage TEA developed family-focused resources to provide statewide in-person and virtual trainings to educators and families of EB students. Through technical assistance to school systems, school systems will be able to strengthen internal systems of how schools engage families in instructional decisions that impact EB students.
