Our mission is to provide the highest degree of service and support so all employees can fulfill their responsibilities to Pearland ISD students.

Notice that they mention the following federals:
- Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964
- Title IX of the Educational Amendments of 1972
- Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973

This is an example of federalism. The national government placing requirements on - in this case - a local government.
Since these are not funded by the national government, they can be called unfunded mandates.
