Mission CISD swears in new trustee

There’s a new face on the district’s board of trustees. 

Jesus Daniel Martinez was officially sworn in to the Place 7 seat, Mission CISD announced Wednesday on its Facebook. 

Martinez was previously appointed to the seat Aug. 22 following Minnie R. Rodgers’ resignation, which the district accepted on Aug. 2. 

Currently serving as a watch commander with the U.S. Customs and Border Protection, the district also touts Martinez’s experience as an active parent in the Mission CISD community as well as his involvement in school activities and events.

The Place 7 seat will be up for reelection in 2026.
