Fabens Independent School District opened its board meeting by recognizing student and staff achievements and thanking the donors who support district programs. The session highlighted athletic accomplishments, JROTC participation in a drone program and community contributions that help fund student opportunities.
Santiago Chavez of Fabens ISD was presented with a $3,500 grant from Rais Federal Credit Union to attend a special‑education inclusion staff development training in February. Chavez said he will use the training to bring back strategies and feedback to share with fellow teachers.
The board also acknowledged recent campus events: Hispanic Heritage Month celebrations at Fabens Middle School, staff recognition during National School Bus Safety Week and donors who supported this year’s activities. Coaches and program leads described competitive successes, including the LadyCats’ district sweep and cross‑country and football season milestones; a JROTC team placed third at a recent drone meet and administrators said a TEA‑authorized drone class is planned for next year.
Board members thanked volunteers and donors by name where speakers did so during the meeting and invited recipients to the podium for certificates and handshakes. The recognitions portion concluded before administrators moved on to financial and academic presentations.
What’s next: These items were ceremonial recognitions; no formal board policy or funding decisions were recorded in the provided transcript segments.
