Beeville ISD administrators presented a comprehensive update to the Board of Trustees this week, detailing major strides in summer learning, facility upgrades, financial stability and staff development as the district prepares for the 2025–26 school year.
Chief of Staff Erika Vasquez opened with instructional highlights, applauding administrators for leading professional development sessions and supporting students through the district’s summer school and enrichment programs. Robotics and culinary camps saw strong participation, and Vasquez emphasized the ongoing curriculum planning by teachers to ensure a strong start in August.
COO Dr. Thomas Lawing outlined a busy summer of operations. He reported deep cleaning and maintenance work across campuses, inventory upgrades in the technology department, and several transportation updates. A new regular education bus will replace a delayed special education bus purchase, which will now be rescheduled for next fiscal year. The Child Nutrition department has already served 678 breakfasts and 1,614 lunches in the first two weeks of summer.
Bond projects are also moving forward, including the A.C. Jones High School restroom addition and auditorium renovations. A previously undetected leak was discovered during the demo process and will be addressed through a change order.
Chief of Police Art Gomez spoke on security initiatives, highlighting the district’s advanced level of preparedness. Officers participated in youth mental health and emergency response training, and Beeville ISD hosted a full-scale active attacker simulation involving multiple agencies. Gomez noted that other districts across Texas have reached out to learn from Beeville’s school-based law enforcement model.
Dr. Darryl Cobb, Chief of Human Resources, presented progress on the district’s “Grow Your Own” initiative with Grand Canyon University. Sixteen employees without undergraduate degrees began coursework in June, each receiving an average of $30,000 in grant funding. Participants are on track to earn degrees and certifications within two to three years, with some already expected to be classroom-ready by next year.
Chief Financial Officer Dela Castillo reported a projected year-end surplus of $40,000 and noted that outstanding purchase orders are being closed ahead of the annual audit. The Child Nutrition department is expected to finish in the black and contribute $180,000 in indirect costs to the general fund. The bond program has spent more than $6 million to date, and investments have earned more than $243,000 in interest.
Athletic Director Richard Vasquez shared a positive update on student athletics, noting that 18 student-athletes have committed to compete at the next level. Summer strength and conditioning programs, along with sports camps, are in full swing. Vasquez praised his coaching staff and credited their leadership for the minimal turnover going into the next school year. He also mentioned ongoing interviews for key coaching vacancies, including soccer and tennis.
Beeville ISD’s board expressed appreciation for the detailed updates and commended the district’s continued commitment to growth, safety, and academic and athletic excellence.

PRINCETON — Mercer County Executive Dan Benson highlighted financial recovery and infrastructure progress during his 2025 State of the County address Tuesday at a Princeton-Mercer Chamber of Commerce gathering.
Benson said the county overcame financial challenges through cost-saving measures and operational changes implemented over the past year.
“Last year, when I spoke, I was clear about the challenges ahead. We were in a tough financial spot,” said Benson. “So we rolled up our sleeves, we tightened our belts, and we went to work.”
The county executive outlined infrastructure projects completed or underway, including breaking ground on Trenton Thunder ballpark upgrades, launching the South Broad Street Vision Plan and making improvements at Trenton Mercer Airport. Other projects include reconstruction of the Eagle Tavern, plans to extend the Johnson Trolley Line Trail and restoration of the Montgomery Street Bridge.
Benson said his administration expanded social services, strengthened public health and safety programs, promoted diversity in vendor procurement and established the Office of LGBTQIA+ Affairs.
“Now, Mercer County is planting seeds for our future, and that future is bright,” said Benson. “Because Mercer is a special place, and we believe that it should be leading the way. We want to set the standard. We want to show the entire region how government can and should work for people.”
Benson emphasized collaboration with the Board of County Commissioners and coordination with the county’s 12 municipalities.
“For the first time in a long time, there’s real energy and excitement about the future of Mercer County and our Capital City,” said Benson. “Because of the hard work of this amazing team, I can say with confidence that the state of Mercer County is much better today than it was just a year ago.”
“Over the past year it’s been great to see so many people excited again about what our County government is doing,” said Board of Commissioners Chair Kristin McLaughlin after the speech. “We’re proud of the partnership we’ve built with the County Executive, and of everything that we’re doing together to move Mercer County forward.”
