Roxton ISD approved the hiring of Sabrina Rosson as principal of the district for the upcoming school year.

Sabrina comes to Roxton ISD with over 30 years in education, and extensive administrative experience, including Assistant Principal, Reading Coach, and State/Federal Programs Supervisor at Paris ISD. Sabrina is a Roxton ISD graduate, she resides in Roxton, and her children and grandchildren have attended school in the district.
Due to a recently approved program change in the district, Superintendent Kelly Pickle recommended the district reduce the administrative contract for the principal to part-time to improve the district’s budget for next year.
Katie Exum, current principal for the district, has accepted a full-time Assistant Principal position at Aikin Elementary in Paris ISD. “We will miss Katie greatly at Roxton, and we know she will do amazing things in her new position. She has been an asset to our school and has positively impacted all of our students and staff! We thank her for her efforts! She always put our students and staff first! She is an incredible leader and we have been blessed to have her this year,” said Kelly Pickle.  
Pickle stated that after looking at the schools budget shortfall for next year, she recommended several changes to the school board in order to reduce the payroll and get the budget balanced for the next year.
“Following this recommendation and approval by the board, we proceeded with the process of interviewing and selecting a principal who can fulfill the part-time position of principal,” said Pickle. “Sabrina is the perfect person for this position with our district. She has been retired from education for a few years but has stayed very active and current in the educational realm in her role as an instructor at Success Center for Learning.”
Rosson is also an officer for the Lamar-Delta Retired Teachers Association. She is active in the Roxton community, the Roxton Methodist Church, The Roxton Ex-Students Association, and local school activities.
“We welcome her to our district and know that she will be a positive support for our teachers, students, and parents,” said Pickle. “I look forward to working with Sabrina again, and I know we will have an outstanding year at Roxton ISD under her leadership. Welcome to our Roxton ISD TEAM, Sabrina,” said Kelly Pickle.
