 If the students of Pasadena ISD are the heart of the district, then the board of trustees is the pulse.

These seven individuals volunteer countless hours to serve the district’s students, employees, and community members. 

Board members are elected by local constituents to play an essential role in the district. Working collaboratively with the district superintendent, staff, parents, students, and community members, the Board establishes a vision for the district, adopts a strategic plan to achieve that vision, looks for opportunities to move the school district forward, and remains united in shaping the quality of education for children.

To achieve these goals, the board is visible in the community and can be seen at campuses, community functions, and small group gatherings seeking input about matters that impact students and staff. On a formal level, the board hosts monthly meetings to make difficult decisions that affect the district.

In addition, board members attend training sessions to stay informed about changes in federal regulations, legislation, and educational trends. Board members also serve on various community, service, and civic organizations and are members of area chambers of commerce, Rotary Clubs, Optimist Club, Lions Club, PTOs and local churches.
