Alvin ISD board approves canvass, purchases, contracts and personnel; key votes at a glance
Summary
At a regular meeting the Alvin ISD Board of Trustees certified May 3 trustee election results, approved cooperative purchases for a track repair and turf replacement, renewed athletic trainer services, reviewed the teacher appraisal calendar, and confirmed several personnel and administrative appointments.
The Alvin Independent School District Board of Trustees took a series of administrative and purchasing actions during its public meeting.
The board certified the May 3, 2025 trustee election results and declared Brian Roberson the winner for trustee position 4 and Cheryl Harris the winner for trustee position 5. The board noted five provisional ballots were received and two were counted; the canvass passed on a motion and carried with the recorded tally.
On purchasing and facilities, the board authorized an estimated $577,000 cooperative purchase to Bennion Sports Surfaces for repair of the running track at Shadow Creek High School and approved an estimated $677,490 cooperative purchase through contract 737-24 (FieldTurf USA) for synthetic turf replacement at Alvin High School’s Memorial Stadium. District staff said FieldTurf’s product will use a different infill that the district expects will reduce surface temperatures by about 10–15 degrees; the manufacturer’s lead time was described as 28 days for production and roughly 21 days for installation.
The board renewed a contract for districtwide athletic trainers with Methodist Hospital, following a request for qualifications; trustees cited the provider’s longstanding service to district athletes. The teacher appraisal calendar for 2025–26 was presented for review (the district indicated the calendar is presented annually for board review and does not require board approval). The board approved recommended personnel hires and several administrative appointments: Charles Moore as associate principal at Alvin High School (motion carried unanimously), Victoria Kwan as executive director of elementary education (motion passed 5–2), and Craig Rhodes as executive director of secondary education (motion passed 5–2).
Consent agenda items a through m were approved in a single motion (motion carried 7–0). Other procedural matters approved included designation of nonbusiness days under House Bill 3033 (motion carried 7–0). Motions to approve purchases and contracts generally carried with board votes recorded as 7–0 unless noted above. The meeting adjourned following routine motions.
