Trustees Discuss Reid’s Replacement

TYLER — Tyler ISD trustees met Monday for the first time to discuss a replacement for Superintendent Dr. Randy Reid. Reid was recently named the sole finalist for the superintendent job in the Keller school district. By state law, the Keller ISD board must wait 21 days before finalizing its decision. But Tyler school trustees tell KETK it’s important to move quickly and fill Reid’s shoes. Reid has been with Tyler ISD for the last five years. He says, “We’re excited; we have mixed emotions. Tyler’s been a great place for my family and I. We are excited about the opportunity to move to a larger district and be back close to my family as well.” Reid says he plans to help the new interim superintendent get acclimated before he takes off. The board can’t take action, though, until after July 23. That’s when Reid is on track to be officially named Keller’s superintendent.
