MFISD Assistant Superintendent leaves district

Marble Falls ISD Assistant Superintendent Allen Roberts will be leaving to take a job in Alvin ISD come early February.

Marble Falls ISD officials said Friday that Alvin ISD had approved the hiring of Roberts in a Tuesday Board of Trustee meeting to the position of Assistant Superintendent of Human Resources. Roberts has served Marble Falls ISD for nine years in several positions, including Principal of Marble Falls Middle School and Marble Falls High School, and in the most recent six years as Assistant Superintendent of Support Services.

“We are always proud when one of our staff members advances their careers,” said Superintendent, Dr. Robert O’Connor, “but Allen’s positive attitude and leadership will be missed.”

Alvin ISD, located just southwest of Houston, near League City, is a large district serving about 21,000 students with two high schools, an alternative academic school, an alternative behavior school, four junior highs and fourteen elementary schools.

“It has been a pleasure to watch the great successes of our staff and students here in Marble Falls over the last nine years,” said Roberts. “I feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with a supportive staff, school board, superintendent and teachers who truly care about kids. Marble Falls is an unbelievable place. I’m looking forward to my new career opportunity and working with the Alvin community.”
