Student Leadership

The new Student Board is here and ready to roll. Bursting with energy, fresh ideas, and passion, these students aren’t just taking the reins—they’re redefining leadership in TPSA.

Student Board

The student board is comprised of representatives from regions across the state.

Why It Matters

The Student Board isn’t just a title—it’s a mission in action. These leaders are:

  • Driving change by shaping real projects and initiatives.
  • Building leadership muscle as they connect peers, plan events, and take charge.
  • Amplifying impact by elevating student voice, service, and spirit across TPSA.

The Student Board exists to bring TPSA’s mission to life. Members gain leadership experience while:

  • Organizing service projects that bring CTSOs together.
  • Offering student perspective on programs, policies, and events.
  • Assisting with communications like newsletters and social media.
  • Supporting regional and state competitions with hands-on involvement.
  • Taking on new challenges as the year unfolds.

What You’ll Do

As a Student Board member, you’ll:

  • Join monthly virtual meetings (attendance is critical; only one absence allowed) to discuss ideas and share updates.
  • Support your region’s competition by organizing events, helping where needed, and capturing the experience with photos and stories.
  • Arrive early at the State Conference to assist with setup, guide participants, and help the event run smoothly.
  • Plan and lead a region-wide service project that unites all CTSOs and makes a real difference in your community.

Benefits

  • Free registration for regional and state competitions.
  • Complimentary meal at the state conference courtesy of TPSA.
  • Leadership experience you can highlight on college applications, resumes, and beyond.

Note: Schools cover hotel, meal, and travel expenses for board members at regional and state events. TPSA provides no additional lodging or travel funding.
