New president chosen to lead New Caney ISD board of trustees

New Caney ISD’s board of trustees has a new president after a newly elected trustee joined the board Nov. 17, prompting a leadership reshuffle.

What’s changed

Elizabeth Harrell—who previously served as board vice president—was unanimously approved as the new board president during trustees’ Nov. 17 meeting. Before Harrell was selected, former board president Creg Mixon said he voluntarily stepped down as board leader.

Harrell was first elected to NCISD’s board in May 2010 before leaving in 2016, as previously reported by Community Impact. She was reelected to the board in 2017.

Ty Trout was selected as the new board vice president, while trustees Wendy Sharp and Angela Tompkins will serve as secretary and assistant secretary, respectively.

In case you missed it

On Nov. 17, David Hagler was sworn in as NCISD’s newest trustee after he was elected by voters during the Nov. 4 election, as previously reported. Hagler will serve in Position 7 after former trustee Beth Prykryl opted not to run for reelection.

Trout was reelected to Position 6 after running unopposed in the Nov. 4 election.
