Judson ISD

Bexar County school board races had multiple upsets in Saturday’s election.

The man who has led San Antonio’s fourth largest district since November has been selected to lead Judson permanently.

She started this school year as superintendent of San Antonio’s fourth largest school district, and she'll end it holding the same title at the fifth largest.

Southwest ISD has named Jeanette Ball lone finalist for superintendent. Ball abruptly resigned from Judson ISD in November for reasons that have not been publicly explained.

A little more than a week after the board of trustees for the Judson Independent School District accepted Jeanette Ball’s immediate resignation as superintendent, the district released a joint statement on Ball’s sudden departure.

Jeanette Ball had been with Judson since 2018 when she joined as superintendent. She was previously superintendent of the Uvalde school district from 2013 to 2018.

COVID-19 seemed to be pretty far in the back of everyone’s mind at a back-to-school block party held by Judson ISD. But if you asked, worries about COVID are still there.

Before the unanimous vote Thursday, Superintendent Jeanette Ball said the board would make history by approving such a large raise.

Voters in Bexar County’s wealthiest school district overwhelmingly approved a tax rate election Tuesday night, but voters in three other Bexar County school districts rejected their districts’ requests for bond funding.
