Vaughn to run for Place 4 in LISD
From staff reports
Flower Mound resident Kris Vaughn has announced her intent to run for Place 4 on the Lewisville ISD Board of Trustees during the upcoming May 11 election.
Vaughn’s commitment to LISD is surrounded by 10 years as a parent volunteer and leader in the district through PTA, Communities in Schools of North Texas, and district committees.
“I want to support LISD as the strategic design implementation continues and we focus on our vision for each student to enjoy a thriving, productive life in a future they create,” Vaughn said. She serves on the 26 member Strategic Design Team that was formed in October 2011 and helped create a new vision and mission for LISD.
Community involvement is a key aspect of the strategic design, and Vaughn has a consistent record promoting support and collaboration for grassroots efforts.
“As a parent of two LISD students, I have a vested interest in the district building strong relationships with community members, and I am eager to help make this happen.”
Most recently, she helped co-found the advocacy group Speak Up for Texas Public Schools, which was organized to raise awareness about the challenges and threats facing public schools, most notably the over-reliance on standardized testing.
Vaughn and her husband, Trent, have lived within LISD for 13 years. She has a son and daughter at Flower Mound High School. Vaughn is a graduate of Central College in Pella, Iowa, where she received a degree in business management.
Vaughn was a member of the inaugural group for the Inside LISD Community Leadership Program. She also has served on the Academic Calendar Committee and Curriculum Council. Vaughn has leadership experience at all levels of PTA including National PTA committee member and Texas PTA board of director. Additionally, Vaughn has served in various capacities as Chair of Central College’s Alumni Advisory Council and a board member for Communities in Schools of North Texas.
Currently, Vaughn sits on the LISD Strategic Design Team and is President of the Flower Mound High School PTSA. She is a member of the National PTA Membership Committee and Central College National Advisory Council. Mrs. Vaughn continues to serve as a mentor through the partnership with LISD and Communities in Schools of North Texas. She has maintained this role for nine years.
