Dear Bryan ISD Staff and Community, it is with heartfelt gratitude and mixed emotions that I share with you a pending change. Fort Bend ISD, located Southwest of Houston, just named me as Lone Finalist for their Superintendent position. This will not be final until September 16 because there is a required 21-day waiting period. This presents a unique opportunity for me as Fort Bend ISD is the 8th largest school district in Texas with more than 77,000 students, 83 campuses, and 12,000 employees. I served as the Deputy Superintendent in this district prior to coming to Bryan and spent much of my career in nearby Katy ISD, where my parents reside. These last 4 ½ years in Bryan ISD have been some of the best in my career. It has been an honor and privilege to serve this district as your Superintendent. I am so proud of the progress we have made and the trajectory that Bryan ISD has moving forward. I cannot thank you enough for the collaboration and the partnership I have experienced as we have made such progress together. Opening a Regional Career and Technical Education Complex (CTEC), passing 187 million dollars in bonds while lowering the tax rate, breaking ground on a new intermediate school, implementing a record number of safety initiatives, completing major renovations and additions to campuses, reorganizing the transportation system and most importantly, the development of our own Essential 8 character initiative that will forever positively affect the culture of Bryan ISD.I am very proud of the work we have accomplished together. We have a strong leadership team in Bryan ISD and I am confident in their ability to keep our momentum going. We have amazing directors, principals, teachers and staff. I want to specifically acknowledge our Board of Trustees (Mark McCall, Julie Harlin, Felicia Benford, Ruthie Waller, Fran Duane, Deidre Davis and David Stasny). Their decision-making has led to the work and progress you see. Under their guidance, Bryan ISD will continue to soar.I appreciate each of you and as I transition over the next several weeks, I can assure you that you are in the best of hands and I am optimistic about all of the great things that will continue to happen here. I will always love Bryan ISD, Bryan, Texas, and Texas A&M. I hope to see you occasionally and wish you the best in all you do.With sincere gratitude,
Dr. Christie Whitbeck
