DSISD Trustee Dr. Mary Jane Hetrick Elected TASB President
Dripping Springs ISD is excited to congratulate Trustee Dr. Mary Jane Hetrick on her election as President of the Texas Association of School Boards (TASB) for the 2026-27 school year.
TASB is member-led by six officers and a Board of Directors made up of school board trustees from districts in every educational service center (ESC) region across the state plus one representative for ESC boards. The board convenes at least four times a year to provide accountability, accessibility, responsive decision-making, and financial oversight to ensure alignment with member needs and priorities.
Hetrick is in her fourth term on the DSISD Board of Trustees, having served four years as vice president and two years as president. She is a 2017 Leadership TASB graduate and Master Trustee.
Active in the Dripping Springs community, Hetrick serves on the Dripping Springs Education Foundation Board, as president of the Foster Village Board, and was co-founder and vice president of Patriots’ Hall of Dripping Springs. She was honored by the Dripping Springs Chamber of Commerce with the Hometown Hero award in 2020.
