\t\t\t\t\t\t\tA Keller ISD board position will be vacant after Place 6 trustee Charles Randklev announced his resignation Dec. 10 on social media<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The gist<\/p>\n

Randklev said he was resigning to pursue candidacy for a position on Keller City Council. That position will be on the ballot for the May 2, 2026, election.<\/p>\n

While KISD board terms ordinarily last three years, the board recently approved new November election dates for board trustee positions at a meeting Nov. 20<\/a>, which extends all current board terms by six months. The new ordinance places the next vote for the KISD seats during the Nov. 3, 2026, general election.<\/p>\n

Zooming out<\/p>\n

Texas law<\/a> states a vacant board seat can be filled by appointment until the next regular trustee election or order a special election. A board vacancy must be filled no later than the 180th day after it occurred if more than one year remains for the vacated position.<\/p>\n

The district did not provide a statement to Community Impact on whether there would be a special election for the Place 6 position.<\/p>\n

Randklev’s resignation also must be approved by the KISD board.<\/p>\n

The background<\/p>\n

Randklev was first elected as the Place 6 Trustee in 2021<\/a> and was re-elected during the May 2024 election.<\/p>\n

He was board president for the 2024-25 school year when KISD was considering a district split<\/a>. The board later called off the district split<\/a>, stating there was \u201cno viable path forward\u201d to do so in an email to district families.<\/p>\n

Randklev’s announcement to pursue a seat with Keller City Council comes after Keller Mayor Armin Mizani announced he was running for Texas House District 98.\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A Keller ISD board position will be vacant after Place 6 trustee Charles Randklev announced his resignation Dec.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":86630,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[41435,41432,116,118,117,14256,7830,41434,15983,15979,41433],"class_list":{"0":"post-86629","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-fort-worth","8":"tag-alliance-isd","9":"tag-charles-randklev","10":"tag-fort-worth","11":"tag-fort-worth-headlines","12":"tag-fort-worth-news","13":"tag-keller-city-council","14":"tag-keller-isd","15":"tag-keller-isd-special-election","16":"tag-keller-split","17":"tag-kisd","18":"tag-special-election-keller"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/86629","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=86629"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/86629\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/86630"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=86629"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=86629"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=86629"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
