Motto &
Mission
The 3 Rs (research, resources,
relevance) that comprise the motto summarize the qualities that
make

in this service area.

unique position to assist
the field in studying issues, conducting
action research, and planning and implementing program evaluation
systems.

well as
other resources of the University, provide the Study Council with
a
vast
array
of resources to offer to the member districts. Texas A
& M
University-Commerce has outstanding
faculty, not only in the College of Education, but also in the College of Arts and Sciences and the
College
of

are
also known nationally and internationally.
Relevance: The Study Council offers accurate,
pertinent, and timely
information and assistance.

their situations
and
specifications. Satisfaction is guaranteed.
The Study Council's original
purposes
remain unchanged; it was established in order to improve schools
through research,
cooperation, and
information. It still serves as a forum for educational ideas, a
vehicle
for
exchanging ideas, for
sharing effective practices, for discussing common problems and current
issues,
and for
conducting
research cooperatively.The strategies for achieving the Council's
mission
have evolved over the
years, but the basic objectives have remained constant.
