About Us

     The Texas State Teachers Association- Student Program (TSTA-SP) is a professional education organization with chapters located all over the state of Texas.  We are the student-led version of TSTA, which is for certified teachers, and we are also affiliated with the National Education Association (NEA), which is 3.2 million members strong nationwide.  Our organization serves several important purposes.  One purpose is to educate future teachers on the latest issues within Texas legislation and advocate for changes in laws, new testing methods, and improved ways of communication between parents, teachers, students, and communities.  TSTA-SP also serves as a network for pre-service educators by coming together to share ideas, thoughts, and concerns about issues going on in Texas schools.  Our organization is committed to providing outstanding and memorable pre-professional experiences and opportunities to dedicated future teachers.

     TSTA-SP is not an organization for education majors only.  It is a society for all who wish to touch the lives of children and young adults in a positive way.  Currently, our Texas A&M TSTA chapter has approximately 165 members.  We hold meetings twice a month on Monday nights for a total of 6-8 meetings per semester.  At each meeting, we welcome knowledgeable and experienced speakers from Bryan, College Station, Houston, and Austin to discuss current topics and issues of concern.  We also hold social events and participate in community service activities throughout the year.
