EFISD wishes to express its appreciation to board members Kim Baugh, Lynn Calhoun, Ashley Caudle, Brad Ellis, Bradley Lewis, Julie Simmons, and Sean Swank, for their dedication and tireless commitment to our district and its students and staff.

The theme of this year’s School Board Recognition Month is "Forward, Together," which highlights the collaboration among school leadership, teachers, and parents on behalf of students.

Dan Troxell, executive director of the Texas Association of School Boards, applauded the efforts of trustees in providing leadership and good governance so that school districts can focus on educating the 5.4 million public schoolchildren in their care.

“Texas school boards are critical to the success of students and the future of Texas,” Troxell said. “Boards lead their districts in the right direction, providing oversight, setting goals, overseeing the budget, and selecting and evaluating the superintendent. These volunteers serve for the betterment of their local schools and communities.”
