The trustees of the Forestburg Independent School District have named Jason Briles as the lone finalist for superintendent.
Briles joined the district in March 2021 when he was named principal upon the retirement of Karen Wiley. He will assume superintendent duties on July 1 following the retirement of John Metzler. The board made the selection at a called meeting on March 31.
As per state law the district names a lone finalist and the board can make a final vote after 10 days. The FISD board is expected to vote on April 25.
Metzler said the principal’s job was posted on April 4 with a deadline of May 1 for applicants. He leaves the district after 10 years as superintendent, plus three years prior as principal at FISD.
Briles said his family has come to love Forestburg, noting the community quickly embraced the family and treated them as “one of their own.”
