Serving on the Board of Managers
NOTE: Per the September 22, 2023, executed Agreed Order between the Texas Education Agency (TEA) and the South San Antonio ISD, the Commissioner of Education has the sole discretion to appoint a Board of Managers to exercise the powers and duties of the South San Antonio ISD Board of Trustees. The Commissioner has not made a final decision and will evaluate the South San Antonio Board of Trustees' performance over the last year before issuing a final decision. To ensure that TEA is prepared to support the community should the Commissioner decide to appoint a Board of Managers, the agency is initiating a process to recruit prospective members for a Board of Managers.
Job Overview
The core purpose of the Board of Managers is to improve student outcomes by representing the vision and values of the South San Antonio ISD community, where every student is to be prepared for college, career, or the military in a manner that is equitable, transparent, and efficient.
