Community input meetings for superintendent search set for January

The Northwest ISD Board of Trustees wants your input for our next superintendent! In addition to the ongoing online survey, the search firm assisting trustees will hold two meetings for community input, one hosted in person and one hosted virtually.

Search firm Leasor Crass will hold an in-person meeting at 5:30 p.m. Thursday, January 6, 2022, in the Northwest ISD administration building. The meeting will be hosted in the PDC rooms, with signs directing attendees to the location. The virtual meeting will be hosted on Zoom the following day, 9 a.m. Friday, January 7, 2022. A link will be emailed to families before the week of the meeting.

In Texas, school boards oversee the employment of superintendents at public school districts. In this role, Northwest ISD trustees will hire the next district leader, using community input to guide their search. Trustees plan to interview candidates in February. Trustees are currently expected to name a lone finalist at a March board meeting. By state law, a 21-day waiting period will take place before a vote to hire that individual can take place.
