About Me

Hi, I'm Jessica Howard

Jessica Howard

I'm Jessica Howard, a dedicated parent, community member, and advocate for high-quality public education. As someone who has seen firsthand the difference that strong leadership and transparent governance can make, I believe our children deserve nothing less than the very best. Schools should be places where academics thrive, families feel heard, and educators are supported—because when we invest in our students, we're investing in the future of our entire community.

Drawing on my background in sales, fundraising, children's advocacy, and community building, I've witnessed the power of coming together around shared goals. It has taught me the value of honest communication, responsible decision-making, and standing firm when it comes to protecting those who need it most. I refuse to back down in the face of challenges, and I'm committed to doing what is right for our children—no matter how difficult the path may be.

My vision for Lake Travis ISD is one where academic excellence, integrity, and accountability go hand in hand. I'm ready to bring people together to focus on what truly matters: preparing our students for success, supporting teachers, and ensuring every voice is heard. I hope to earn your vote and have the honor of representing you on the LTISD School Board (Place 3). Together, we can make a lasting impact that benefits every child and family in our district.

My Mission

Students First

I believe that open communication and true transparency are essential for creating policies that truly serve our students. By involving families, teachers, students, and district employees in meaningful dialogue, we ensure that decisions reflect the real needs of our community. Equally important is addressing bullying in all its forms—physical, verbal, and online—because the harm it causes doesn't stop with the victim; it impacts bystanders and the entire school environment.

Strengthening and expanding anti-bullying education will be a top priority for me. By equipping students with the knowledge and tools to stand up against bullying, and by fostering a culture where everyone feels safe to speak up, we can create a more positive school experience for all. When our children learn in an atmosphere free from fear and intimidation, they—and our community as a whole—are better positioned to thrive.
