Round Rock ISD trustee Brian Sellers announced his resignation from the district board Oct. 11.
Sellers has served on the board since 2008 and serves as the board's secretary. Sellers was involved in the district's decision process to select Steve Flores as its new superintendent after Jess Chvez announced his retirement Jan. 30.
"The [trustee] role is a time-consuming one," Sellers said. "I've decided to focus more time on my kids and my wife. I feel like I am leaving the school board in a good spot and can take the time I need to be with my family."
The board is scheduled to discuss the process of replacing Sellers at its Oct. 17 meeting. Sellers will remain on the board until a replacement is chosen, according to RRISD. Sellers' term expires in 2014.
"We respect the decision Brian has made and appreciate the five years of service he gave to our district," board president Catherine Hanna said in a news release. "His deep roots in the community and the fact that he attended Round Rock ISD schools were a great asset for our Board. We are going to miss his positive attitude and willingness to work collaboratively."
Sellers is the second trustee to resign from the board in 2013. In April, former RRISD trustee Glen Colby announced his resignation, citing time demands of board service as his reason for stepping down.
"It has been an honor to serve in the community where I grew up," Sellers said.
