Tolbert

Birdville ISD's Board of Trustees would like to say thank you to the community and staff for their input and assistance in helping determine the profile for the next superintendent of BISD. It is because of your thoughtful input, the board was able to locate an individual who best reflects Birdville ISD.

 

On February 10, trustees hired Bob E. Griggs and Associates to assist in the search for a new superintendent. We knew the importance of having someone to lead the search who had a thorough understanding of our community.
