Seguin ISD's Board Transformation and Naming Decisions

Newly Elected Trustees

At tonight's meeting, the Seguin ISD will be administering the oath of office to three trustees. Grace Mueller, representing District 3, and Lisa Burns, from District 6, have been newly elected. Additionally, William Dwyer, who will serve District 1, has been newly appointed. After no one filed to replace former Trustee Carl Jenkins during the Nov. 5 election, Dwyer's appointment is a crucial addition to the board.

The special meeting at 6 p.m. marks the start of this process, followed by the regular monthly meeting at 6:30 p.m. in the Seguin ISD Administration Building at 1221 E. Kingsbury St. These events will set the stage for the district's future governance.

Naming the New Athletic Facility

The top agenda item is the possible naming of the new Seguin High School Baseball and Softball Complex. A total of 16 nominations were submitted during the first and second rounds. District officials opened it up for a second round to ensure everyone had a chance to be heard and participate in the process.

They received 8 nominations for the softball field only and 9 nominations for the baseball field. Some nominated names received multiple requests, while others were excluded for not meeting the district's criteria. The district is eager to secure a new name for the athletic facility as the high school prepares for its official grand opening in January.

Details of the Naming Process

The naming process has been thorough, with various nominations submitted for different parts of the complex. This shows the community's interest and involvement in shaping the identity of the new athletic facility.

The district's efforts to gather nominations and consider them carefully demonstrate their commitment to making the right decisions. It's an important step in creating a sense of pride and unity within the school community.
