Joining BuyBoard Is Free and Easy!

The Texas Cooperative is open to all local governments, and other political subdivisions in the state that are authorized to be a party to an interlocal cooperation agreement under the Interlocal Cooperation Act. The following entities must be members of the Texas Association of School Boards (TASB) to participate:

• Texas school districts including open enrollment and college/university charter schools
• Educational cooperatives
• Community colleges
• Central appraisal districts

While not eligible for Cooperative membership, TASB also offers nonprofit, tax-exempt entities use of the BuyBoard through a nonprofit subscriber agreement. If you are outside the state of Texas and interested in joining the BuyBoard National Purchasing Cooperative, please refer to the sign-up information.

Membership is free and as easy as completing one of the appropriate membership agreements:

• Local governmental entities (including open enrollment and college/university charter schools) or other political subdivisions located in Texas must complete the Interlocal Agreement (pdf).

• Nonprofit entities must complete the nonprofit subscriber agreement (pdf).

If you are unsure about which agreement to sign, call us at 800.695.2919.
