Brownsville Independent School District


	Dr. Carl A. Montoya
	Superintendent

At a Special Called Board Meeting held on Tuesday, December 13, 2011, Brownsville ISD Trustees officially named Dr. Carl A. Montoya as the Superintendent of the Rio Grande Valley’s largest school district. He had been serving as the district’s Interim Superintendent since June 8, 2011.

Immediately following his selection, Dr. Montoya outlined a central theme and key supporting goals for his administration. He pledged to the Board that he would work with all stakeholders to ensure that students graduating from BISD high schools are “College Ready, College Connected, and College Completed” under his watch. BISD will continue to maintain a balanced budget while providing high quality student services. The district will also provide strong support to district and campus personnel as they prepare for the new, more rigorous state assessment known as STAAR.

“I have full confidence that Dr. Montoya will guide this district in a direction that supports student academic success,” said Dr. Enrique Escobedo, Board President. “Our new superintendent will continue to ensure that every BISD student receives a quality education.”

Dr. Carl Montoya is a veteran educator with 36 years of experience. He has held various administrative positions in New Mexico and Texas including 6 years in Dallas ISD. Prior to arriving in Brownsville, Montoya served as the Superintendent of Aransas Pass Independent School District for 6 years. He has worked in BISD for the past 6 years.

Dr. Montoya is a certified Texas police officer and was recently re-appointed by Governor Rick Perry to serve another term on the Texas School Safety Center at Texas State University. He holds Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees from the University of New Mexico and a Doctorate of Education from New Mexico State University.

“I sincerely thank the Board of Trustees for this vote of confidence. I am honored to be selected to lead this dynamic school district. I believe that Brownsville ISD’s best days lie ahead. I ask BISD stakeholders to partner with me as we focus our attention on doing what is best for all students,” said Montoya.
