Dear Fort Worth Hispanic Chamber of Commerce Members,
The announcement from Texas Education Agency Commissioner Mike Morath marks a critical moment for Fort Worth ISD and for our community. The Texas Education Agency (TEA) has stated that it will appoint a Board of Managers and a conservator to oversee the district and begin the process of selecting a new superintendent.
Throughout this period, we are grateful for the continued leadership of Superintendent Dr. Karen Molinar, whose dedication is vital in providing stability and guidance for our students, educators, and families.
This transition will shape the future of our students, our workforce, and our local economy. Because of that, the voices serving on the new Board of Managers must reflect the full diversity of Fort Worth parents, business leaders, neighborhood advocates, civic leaders, and others who care deeply about student success and opportunity.
We encourage qualified community members to apply to serve on the Board of Managers through the TEA’s process at tea.texas.gov/board-of-managers. The deadline to apply is November 21, 2025.
Strong public schools are the foundation of a strong city. When students succeed, families are more stable, employers are stronger, and Fort Worth’s future is brighter. The Fort Worth Hispanic Chamber of Commerce will continue to support efforts that strengthen academic achievement, career readiness, and equitable opportunity for every student in Fort Worth ISD.
We stand committed to working with families, educators, businesses, and civic partners to ensure every child in Fort Worth has access to the best education.
In partnership,
Ericka Garza
President & CEO
