ECISD board confirms multiple school and cabinet hires, elects board officers
Summary
The ECTOR COUNTY ISD board approved hires for multiple principals and cabinet positions and elected Tammy Hawkins president, Dr. Steve Brown vice president and Bob Baker secretary during the May 20 meeting.
The ECTOR COUNTY ISD Board of Trustees on May 20 approved multiple personnel appointments, including campus principals and central-office leaders, and completed its annual board reorganization by electing new officers.
Superintendent Dr. Boyer recommended several hires; trustees approved each appointment by voice vote, with one recorded abstention on the chief academic officer vote.
Appointments approved by the board
- Kristen Pugh, principal, Nimitz Middle School (approved by voice vote). - Jenny Chavez, principal, EK Downing Elementary School (approved by voice vote). - Amanda Sierra, principal, Gonzales Elementary School (approved by voice vote). - Julie Marshall, executive director of leadership (approved by voice vote). - Dr. Robert Trejo, chief academic officer (approved; one abstention recorded). - Dr. Matt Spivey, chief human capital officer (approved by voice vote).
Board reorganization
Trustees voted individually to name the board officers for the coming year. The results announced on the record were:
- President: Tammy Hawkins (motion approved). - Vice president: Dr. Steve Brown (motion approved). - Secretary: Bob Baker (motion approved).
Why it matters: The hires place campus and district leadership in place before the new school year and align central-office responsibilities as the board prepares for upcoming budget decisions and capital projects under Bond 2023.
Votes and procedure: Each personnel recommendation was presented on the record and approved by voice vote. The chief academic officer vote included one abstention; all other appointments and the officer elections carried with the majority present.
Next steps: Appointed principals and cabinet members will begin onboarding per district procedures; the board will continue regular oversight of hires and administrative changes.
