David for Katy ISD

I’m running to put teachers first, students at the center, and families at the table.

My Bio

I am running for Katy ISD Position 4 because our schools work best when teachers are supported, students are put first, and families have a real voice at the table. My background in nonprofit service and community leadership has taught me that listening only matters if it leads to action.


In 2023, I accompanied students to the Texas Capitol to advocate for their education. Most offices welcomed them. One door did not. A staffer shut it and said, “They’re unavailable.” One student asked me, “Do they even care what we have to say?” That moment changed how I saw leadership and accountability. Later that same year, I sat in a Katy ISD board meeting as nearly 100 community voices were ignored while trustees adopted a policy they could not clearly explain themselves. Those moments made one thing clear to me: voices are too often checked off instead of truly heard.


I am running to keep the doors open. This campaign is about listening to educators, respecting families, and putting students at the center. If you believe leadership should listen and act, I invite you to get involved. Volunteer, share this message, and help build a Katy ISD where every voice counts.

My Key Issues

Empowering Teachers

Cookie cutter solutions do not work in real classrooms. Students come from different schools, socioeconomic backgrounds, and levels of family and community support. Teachers face different needs as a result. By listening regularly and acting on what we hear, we can develop solutions that work for our educators while tailoring support to meet individual classroom realities.

Championing Parents

Based on my plain language understanding of the constitutional amendment passed in November 2025, parents are the first and primary decision makers for their children. Trustees serve families best by respecting those rights and avoiding policies that overstep that role. Katy ISD already has the right tools. Canvas gives parents direct, granular control over their child’s book access while allowing our Superintendent and campus leaders to do the jobs they are trained and paid to do. We should support them, not micromanage them.

Supporting Administration

Our Superintendent is the educational leader and chief executive officer of the District. We pay Dr. Gregorski a lot of money because he is highly qualified. It's our job as a board to pass the budget and hold him accountable. It's his job to hold the rest of the schools accountable. Let's support him instead of getting in the way with more policies that create confusion or put our students and teachers at risk.

Class Rooms, not Court Rooms

As trustees, we have a responsibility to make thoughtful, legally sound decisions that keep the focus on students, not courtrooms. When we ignore clear guidance or overstep our authority, it opens the door to costly legal challenges that waste taxpayer dollars and distract from education. Let’s lead with care, follow the law, and put students first.

Fiscal Responsibility

Trustees are responsible for doing the most for students with the dollars we have. While broader civic participation matters, wasting taxpayer money on more expensive election schemes does not help classrooms. Those funds are better used increasing paraprofessional pay, hiring more staff, and fixing healthcare plans that are driving employees away. When we take care of teachers and staff, they can better take care of students.
