January 2016 is School Board Recognition Month and Lamar CISD joins other districts across the state in honoring the countless contributions of these locally-elected advocates for public education.

“Serving on a local school board is no easy task, particularly in today’s climate of rapid change,” said Lamar CISD Superintendent Dr. Thomas Randle. “These men and women establish the policies providing the framework for our public schools. They tackle a difficult job and shoulder enormous responsibilities.

“Too often we neglect to recognize the dedication of these local citizens who work without pay,” Randle continued. “So each year the Texas Association of School Boards (TASB) encourages communities to show appreciation to these individuals for their unfailing commitment to the success of all students. The staff and students of Lamar CISD applaud our board members for their vision and voice to help shape a better tomorrow.”

Lamar CISD’s school trustees are Board President Kathryn Kaminski, Vice President Kay Danziger, Secretary Anna Gonzales, Dr. Tyson Harrell, Melisa Roberts, James Steenbergen and Frank Torres.
