The San Benito CISD Board of Trustees elected Dr. Ariel Cruz as board president, Cristo Hernandez as vice president and Israel Barrera as board secretary during a reorganization vote at its regular meeting on May 14, 2025.
The reorganization took place early in the meeting under agenda item 1.4. Following nominations, the board approved the slate by voice vote; no roll-call tally was read into the record.
