January is School Board Recognition Month and Alvin ISD is celebrating its trustees for their dedication and commitment to the district and its students.
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.
“Our school board members are selfless volunteers who spend long hours working to ensure each and every student have the opportunity to learn and grow,” Alvin ISD Superintendent Carol Nelson said. “Celebrating School Board Recognition Month is one way to say thanks for all they do.”
Serving as a link between the community and classroom, school board members are elected to establish the policies that provide the framework for public schools. The Alvin ISD school board is responsible for over 29,000 students, 4,500 employees and 33 campuses.
In Alvin ISD, the Board consists of seven elected community members with backgrounds in areas such as petrochemical and technology industries, service of individuals with special needs, former educators, small business owners, and more. These individuals bring their personal expertise with a shared vision of excellence for children to their role as an Alvin ISD trustee.
Board members serving are: Earl Humbird, President; Vivian Scheibel, Vice President; Albert “AJ” Johnson, Secretary; Regan Metoyer-Peterson, Trustee; Cory Scott, Trustee; Cheryl Harris, Trustee; and David Selsky, Trustee.
