Frenship ISD recognizes community partners and student performers; introduces recommended hires and promotions
Summary
Trustees and district leaders recognized platinum-level community partners, UIL music and athletics achievements, and introduced several recommended hires and central-office promotions to support district growth.
Frenship ISD used Monday's meeting to honor community partners and student achievements, and to introduce multiple recommended hires and promotions as the district expands operations.
District officials recognized four platinum-level community partners who together donated more than $16,000 to the Friends of Frenship Partner Program; the presenters named representatives from BeepMo Homes, UMC Health and EPC among the highest-level supporters. The district said those funds support staff appreciation events and student recognitions.
Administrators recognized Friendship High School musicians who earned an Outstanding Performer distinction at the UIL state solo and ensemble contest. A state letter read aloud noted that only 2–3% of solo performances at the state contest earn the Outstanding Performer honor. The board also honored varsity baseball and softball student-athletes who received academic All-State honors from the Texas High School Coaches Association and TGCA.
Superintendent-level presenters introduced and recommended several new campus and central-office staff: new lead theater teacher Amy Friar; head coaches (including Noe Ramos, Chase Ryan, Matthew White and Jacob Dangerfield) for sports programs; and central-office promotions, including Cassandra Slayton as Executive Director of Secondary Education, Michelle Elliott as Executive Director of Elementary Education and Keith Patrick (introduced in other items) as a central office leader. Ira Flores was recommended as CTE director.
The meeting record shows the introductions and administrative recommendations took place during the recognition and personnel portion of the agenda; the transcript does not record a separate roll-call approval for each hire in the excerpt provided. Some of the recommended hires and promotions were described as district recommendations and will follow the district's personnel approval processes.
Why it matters: the introductions and recognitions show district outreach to community partners, highlight student achievement at state competitions, and reflect staffing realignment as Frenship ISD opens new campuses and expands programs.
What to watch: trustees and staff noted that some hires support newly opened campuses, athletic programs and an expanding CTE program as the district grows.
