1
00:00:00,00 --> 00:00:06,400
We celebrated alumni, staff and completed 
our mission statement at last night's board 
meeting.

2
00:00:06,410 --> 00:00:14,400
We began last night's meeting of the Board 
of Trustees by recognizing some of our new 
administrators.

3
00:00:14,410 --> 00:00:17,700
New Blackshear Elementary principal, Meagan 
White...

4
00:00:17,710 --> 00:00:20,300
...Klein Oak High School Principal, Thomas 
Hensley...

5
00:00:20,310 --> 00:00:24,100
...we also introduced the new Klein Intermediate 
principal, Charles Woods.

6
00:00:24,110 --> 00:00:29,700
I am excited about working with these leaders 
as we work together to implement our vision 
for Klein ISD.

7
00:00:29,710 --> 00:00:34,950
The Board also recognized Jacki & Bill Dowling 
as the July alumni honorees.

8
00:00:34,950 --> 00:00:37,950
The Dowlings both graduated from Klein Oak 
High School and as adults...

9
00:00:37,950 --> 00:00:43,600
...gave back to the Klein community in many 
ways, Jacki as a teacher and coach, and Bill 
as a firefighter.

10
00:00:43,610 --> 00:00:52,400
Many of you know Bill as Iron Bill, who survived 
nearly four years following a fire at the 
Southwest Inn that claimed the lives of four 
fellow Houston firefighters.

11
00:00:52,410 --> 00:00:59,300
It was an honor to celebrate his memory and 
the legacy Bill and Jacki established, that 
will live on for years to come.

12
00:00:59,310 --> 00:01:05,700
In other actions, the Board approved and 
set a date for the trustee election for Position 
1, held by Georgan Reitmeier...

13
00:01:05,710 --> 00:01:08,300
and Position 2, which was recently held by 
Steven Smith.

14
00:01:08,310 --> 00:01:12,990
Tuesday, November 7, 2017, is the date of 
the election.

15
00:01:12,990 --> 00:01:14,800

16
00:01:14,810 --> 00:01:18,300
And finally, the Board approved an updated 
mission statement.

17
00:01:18,310 --> 00:01:23,200
Klein ISD folks will recognize it as the 
areas of focus we have discussed so many 
times...

18
00:01:23,210 --> 00:01:28,000
To achieve our shared vision of every student 
entering with a promise and exiting with 
a purpose...

19
00:01:28,010 --> 00:01:33,700
...we will focus on pathways, challenge, 
equity, leadership, and continuous improvement.
