Tyler ISD proudly announces the successful completion of its 2024–2025 Certified Community Education Specialist Program, with 19 realtors graduating from this year’s cohort. Now in its second year, the program continues to lead the way as the first of its kind in East Texas, demonstrating Tyler ISD’s ongoing commitment to fostering strong community partnerships and increasing awareness of district initiatives among local key stakeholders.
Over the course of the school year, participants met monthly to explore the inner workings of Tyler ISD through engaging sessions and campus visits. Realtors gained a well-rounded understanding of the district’s educational programs, facilities, and priorities, equipping them to better serve homebuyers and families across the community.
Participants had the opportunity to interact with district administrators, campus leadership, and educators, learning firsthand about the innovative practices, academic resources, and student support systems throughout Tyler ISD. The Certified Community Education Specialist Program has fostered lasting connections and meaningful collaboration across sectors by bridging the gap between education and real estate.
“We want to congratulate the realtors who have completed the Certified Community Education Specialist Program,” said Chief Communications Officer Jennifer Hines. “Their dedication to learning more about our schools and community is admirable. We’re proud to partner with this group of professionals who are helping families make informed decisions while also supporting public education in Tyler.”
Graduates of the program leave with a deeper appreciation of the role education plays in shaping the community’s future and are now empowered to serve as ambassadors for Tyler ISD—championing its successes and helping build a stronger, better-informed East Texas.
Tyler ISD congratulates the 19 realtors who completed the 2024–2025 Certified Community Education Specialist Program. We look forward to continued collaboration with the local real estate community in the years ahead.
