Volunteer warns board that Fabens High front office needs a full‑time professional

Fabens ISD Board of Trustees · February 19, 2026

Summary

A long‑time volunteer said the Fabens High front office is understaffed, leaving visitors and phones unattended; she urged the board to find funding to staff the office immediately.

Rosa Maria Cayo Avidia, who identified herself as a volunteer at Fabens High School, told trustees that routine front‑office duties—answering phones, issuing visitor tags and directing parents—are overwhelming volunteers and interfering with office operations. She said the position should "not remain unmanned" and urged the board to act to secure a professional office worker for the high school.

"The high school student body merits a professional office worker there," Cayo Avidia said, describing long phone waits and the difficulty volunteers face learning all front‑office procedures in a few days. Trustees acknowledged her concerns during the public‑comment period; administration said they would take staffing needs into account and explore options for coverage and possible funding sources.
