Greetings

Being able to attend our schools’ games and support our athletes, cheer, band and dance students, is one of the things I love most about being superintendent of Fort Bend ISD. We are ready to kick off another season again and I’m excited. I am proud of our coaches and administrators who work to not only inspire our student-athletes to achieve on the field, on the court, and in the classroom, but who also help our kids develop their character and a spirit of sportsmanship. As an educator, this is a particular point of pride for me because our district is committed to building the future leaders of our community. I would also like to

congratulate leaders of our district’s Athletics Department, which supervises thousands of students in our middle and high school programs. The department’s vision, leadership and dedication are unmatched. Our dedicated leaders are a big part of the reason our students excel in area, regional and state competitions. The success of our student athletes requires a team effort, and I am grateful to work with such talented students, staff, coaches and parents. Please join us in supporting these students as we launch another semester of fall sports in Fort Bend ISD. I’ll see you at the game! Dr. Christie Whitbeck (Proud Supt) Fort Bend ISD Superintendent
