Crosby ISD will elect 7 new trustees in November

Filing Period begins July 23

CROSBY – The filing period begins soon for members of the public who wish to run for a seat on the Crosby Independent School District Board of Trustees.

All seven Trustee positions will be on the November ballot as part of the 2020 Census Redistricting process. Positions 1 through 7, including the At-Large Position 6, will be up for election this fall. Elections are conducted biennially in November. However, the Board approved all seven seats on the ballot this year due to the redrawing of single-member districts. The Redistricting process was completed to accommodate population changes between the 2010 Census and the 2020 Census.

The Candidate Filing Period begins July 23 and runs through August 22nd at 5pm. Applications are accepted at the Crosby ISD Operations Center, 14670 FM 2100, Crosby, TX, 77532. Applications must be notarized. Our staff members can serve as a notary if needed.

There are a number of eligibility and application requirements to be a Crosby ISD Board of Trustee member. Among them: you must be a resident and registered voter in the single-member district from which you are running. The at-large position is available for any resident who is a registered voter residing within the boundaries of Crosby ISD.

You can see the full list of eligibility requirements on Crosby ISD’s 2022 Board Elections web page at www.crosbyisd.org/boardelections. This site features a map with an address search to locate your single-member district; application documents; and deadlines for the election process. Questions can also be submitted to the Director of Communications and Community Relations, Mr. Brett Birkinbine at communications@crosbyisd.org.

Board of Trustee members serve as volunteers who help guide the District in approving policies, setting goals and curriculum standards, and celebrating achievements of students and staff in Crosby ISD.
