Dear Fort Bend- the resilient and vibrant community that I have been honored to serve,
In times of challenge, it is imperative that I “be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger” and approach each situation with patience, understanding, and a commitment to righteousness, as guided by James 1:19-20.
Despite the challenges, I remain steadfast in my commitment to truth, transparency, and advocating for the best interests of our children, teachers, and parents. My decision-making has always been guided by a sense of duty and responsibility, particularly in matters such as the TEA complaint filed in December.
I want to express my deepest gratitude for the opportunity to have served as a trustee for our diverse and beautiful community. While I must acknowledge the disappointment of not being re-elected, I have peace and a great gratitude to the Board and FBISD Administration for the collective work we accomplished.
To Kristin Tassin and Adam Schoof, I extend my sincere congratulations on your victory in the election. I have no doubt that you will approach your new roles with a steadfast dedication to serving the needs of our community. Thank you for your service, your sacrifice, and your commitment to public service.
To all the candidates who ran alongside me in this journey, I want to express my deep appreciation for your willingness to step forward and run for office. Campaigning is no easy feat. Each of you brought unique perspectives, ideas, and experiences to the table, enriching the civil discourse and contributing to the democratic process.
And to the voters who placed their trust in me, I offer my heartfelt thanks. Your support and confidence in my abilities mean more to me than words can express. Though the outcome may not have been what we hoped for, please know that your belief in me has been a source of inspiration and strength throughout this journey.
Though our paths may have diverged, I hope that we can all continue to work together towards our shared goal of building a brighter future for all.
With deepest gratitude and warmest regards,
Kristen Davison Malone
