Barbara Denson for State Board of Education ~ District 6

Barbara is centered on educational integrity and opportunity. Her platform emphasizes:

• Ensure Texas’s strong education laws actually deliver results by fully training teachers in the fundamentals—phonics, cursive, and numeracy—so our classrooms don’t just have good policy on paper but real progress in practice
• High‑quality educational options for every family
• A renewed focus on critical thinking and factual instruction
• Preparing students for the rapidly changing job landscape by strengthening pathways into technical, vocational, and STEM careers

Barbara will work to  align our curriculum with the wave of advanced manufacturing, engineering, and technology jobs coming to Texas, ensuring students are prepared for the careers these companies are bringing - not geared toward yesterday’s career paths.
