ESC Region 13
Education Service Center Region 13 is one of twenty service centers that serve Texas' educational needs. We are a non-regulatory agency, so our relationship with school districts is collaborative and supportive—helping aid teachers and administrators in their role as educators of our children. We serve as a liaison between the Texas Education Agency and the local school districts and schools by sharing information, conducting training, and consulting for both federal and state programs.
Although we provide services and tools nationwide, our focused regional area includes:
60 School districts

18 Charter schools
19 Private schools
8 Institutes of higher education
