The Keller ISD board will hold a special meeting on Jan. 16 to discuss the idea.
Keller school board members have confirmed rumors that trustees are considering a proposal to split the district in two.Two trustees, Joni Shaw Smith and Chelsea Kelly, confirmed in coordinated Facebook posts that discussions took place among other board members regarding “a plan to detach a portion of Keller ISD and form a new school district.”“As a parent and resident, I am concerned that no public discussions or community engagement have taken place regarding this matter,” Shaw Smith wrote.
The upcoming meeting “will be an opportunity for the Board of Trustees and Administration to continue discussing internally whether there is merit in reshaping the district,” Randklev wrote.“An idea of this magnitude requires significant legal analysis therefore we will have these discussions internally as a board and we will present a plan in an open and transparent manner when we have information to share,” he wrote.
The Alliance ISD Facebook page’s description? “Where your kids go when Keller ISD decides you’re on the wrong side of the tracks.”
