Two candidates have announced their intent to seek election for a position on the Fort Bend ISD board of trustees.
Jim Rice and Rick Garcia will face off May 7 for Position 3 on the FBISD board of trustees, according to announcements from both candidates.
Rice, who serves as the trustee for that position, was first elected to Position 3 in May of 2010 and has served in that position since, according to FBISD’s website. He was elected board secretary in June 2011 and board president in 2012, serving two consecutive terms in that office.
“I am proud of my service as a trustee on the board for Fort Bend ISD,” Rice said in a Jan. 10 announcement. “Currently I serve as the board vice president and serve as a member of the governance committee and chair the audit committee. My goals have always been to provide a quality education for all students, to support our teachers, engage the community, and to maintain a balanced budget.”
