Troy ISD trustees honor students and robotics team for state and regional placements
Summary
Troy ISD trustees recognized students and teams at their Jan. 27 meeting, honoring state-level FFA accomplishments and regional and state placements for Troy High School Robotics and other student groups.
President Gary McMurtry opened the Troy ISD Board of Trustees meeting on Jan. 27, 2025, with a formal recognition segment honoring board service and student achievements. Administrator Neil Jeter presented certificates to board members for School Board Appreciation Month and read resolutions recognizing student accomplishments, including Jody Thigpen’s 4th-place finish in the state Greenhand Creed Speaking contest (out of 741 teams) and the Troy High School Robotics team’s Regional Hub first-place finish and UIL State Qualifier Medium Schools — State 8th-place result.
The board approved the resolutions honoring the students by unanimous vote. The record lists multiple students and team members by name (for example, Ariel Aguillon, Julian Moreno, Derek Bilbrey and others) and recognizes the robotics program’s Software Design Award and state qualification. The transcript indicates the robotics item was discussed on the agenda; presentation details were recorded as "reports were given or discussion held" but no extended remarks from a presenter are included in the transcript.
