Michael Stroman Angleton ISD Trustee

This week I attended the TASB Summer Leadership Institute for School Board Members in San Antonio. During the conference, I attended sessions on several important topics, including School Safety and Security, Strengthening Board Understanding of Special Programs, Section 504, Special Education and Dyslexia Services, Program Reviews and Accountability Systems, Facility Planning and Preparing for Growth, and Advocating for and Strengthening Public Education.

I took the opportunity to ask questions, learn from experts across the state, and gain a better understanding of the challenges and opportunities facing public schools. Hearing how other districts are addressing these issues provided valuable insight that can help us make informed decisions here at home. While every district faces challenges, it was encouraging to see that many things Angleton ISD has in place compare to districts across the state. I feel the more knowledge we gain, the better equipped we are to ask the right questions to make decisions that are positive for our district. I remain committed to continuing my growth as a board member so I can better serve Angleton ISD. Learning never stops, and neither does my commitment to serving with integrity, transparency, accountability, and leadership.
