January is School Board Appreciation Month!🎉 This month, we proudly recognize the dedicated individuals who serve our community by providing local governance, leadership, and oversight for our schools. Our school board members volunteer countless hours making decisions that keep students at the center of everything we do.
Meet Our Board of Trustees:
⭐ Billie Read, President — Serving since 2014
⭐ Kimen Johnson, Vice President — Serving since 2020
⭐ Jordan Johnston, Secretary — Serving since 2024
⭐ Levi West, Trustee — Serving since 2024
⭐ Blake Burkett, Trustee — Serving since 2022
⭐ Clay Brown, Trustee — Serving since 2019
⭐ Steve Moore, Retired — Served 2017-2025
📚 Why School Boards Matter
In Texas, local school boards play a vital role in shaping education by representing the values, needs, and expectations of their communities. Within state and federal guidelines, trustees work together to:
✔️ Set goals and priorities for student success
✔️ Adopt and review district policies
✔️ Hire and evaluate the superintendent
✔️ Adopt the district budget and tax rate
✔️ Communicate openly with the community
✔️ And SO much more!
🤝 A Shared Commitment to Students
While the superintendent manages daily operations, the board provides governance and oversight; working together to ensure our district remains focused on what matters most: student achievement and success.
🧡 Please join us in thanking our Board of Trustees for their leadership, service, and dedication to our schools and community!
