The Seguin ISD Board of Trustees would like to keep the public informed on its search for its new superintendent. The board continues to accept applications for the position, with the application deadline approaching on Wednesday, May 21.
The board recently hired the Texas Association of School Boards (TASB) Executive Search Services to help with the search, as Dr. Veronica Vijil plans to retire. TASB held several meetings within the district and coordinated a public questionnaire to help build a profile for the new superintendent.
Once applications are closed, trustees will review them at a special meeting on Wednesday, May 28, and conduct their first round of interviews on Saturday, May 31. Candidates selected for a second interview will be invited back on Monday, June 9.
The board intends to vote to name its lone finalist on Tuesday, June 17, which will start the 21-day posted period as required by state law. Trustees expect to vote to hire the lone finalist on Thursday, July 10.

Seguin ISD is celebrating its seventh consecutive year of
recognition as one of the Best Communities for Music Education. The district is among those
recognized by the National Association of Music Merchants (NAMM).
“We value music education for all children here in Seguin ISD,” said Dr. Veronica Vijil, Seguin
ISD superintendent. “This designation is proof that our district is recognized well beyond
Guadalupe County for the talents of our students and the dedication of our teachers.”
Districts recognized for the Best Communities for Music Education (BCME) award are chosen
for demonstrating a strong commitment to providing students with music education. According
to NAMM, the application process includes verified data on funding, instruction time,
participation, and community engagement.
Seguin ISD elementary students have several opportunities for music enrichment, including
regular classes, school choirs, and public performances. Band, choir, guitar, mariachi, and
musical theatre are offered at the secondary level in the district’s middle schools and high
school. These students are also provided the opportunity to compete in the University
Interscholastic League (UIL) music program.
2025 marks the 26th year for the Best Communities in Music Education award. Seguin ISD has
been selected annually for the honor since 2018.

Seguin ISD has announced that the district will continue its
policy requiring students to carry clear backpacks on all campuses for the 2025-2026 school
year. This decision reflects the district’s ongoing commitment to ensuring the safety and security
of all students and staff.
The Clear Backpack Policy, originally introduced to enhance visibility and deter the presence of
prohibited items on campus, has enhanced the district’s effective safety measures. After careful
consideration and consultation with district leaders and the Seguin Police Department, Seguin
ISD will maintain the policy as part of its broader school safety strategy.
“Our highest priority is the well-being of our students and staff,” said Dr. Veronica Vijil, Seguin
ISD superintendent. “Continuing the use of clear backpacks allows us to promote a safer
environment by supporting our campus safety protocols and emergency preparedness plans.”
The Seguin Police Department has met with district leadership to review current security
practices and has expressed its full support of the Clear Backpack Policy. Its endorsement
reflects the shared commitment between the school district and law enforcement to maintain a
safe learning environment.
“We support Seguin ISD in taking proactive steps to increase visibility and prevent potential
threats,” said Jason Brady, Chief of the Seguin Police Department. “The Clear Backpack Policy
is a simple but effective part of a multi-layered approach to school safety.”
Seguin ISD remains dedicated to ongoing collaboration with families, students, staff, and local
law enforcement to uphold safety measures and foster a secure, supportive educational
experience. Parents and guardians will receive additional guidance and reminders about the
policy as the new school year approaches.
