NEWS RELEASE THRALL INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 28 October 2026 Thrall ISD Names Dr. Chanda Bloch Lone Finalist for Superintendent THRALL, Texas — The Thrall Independent School District Board of Trustees has selected Dr. Chanda Bloch as the lone finalist for Superintendent following a comprehensive search facilitated by a superintendent search firm. The search attracted 35 candidates. Throughout the process, trustees thoughtfully considered the district’s needs, its strong traditions, and the opportunities ahead for students and staff before selecting Dr. Bloch. Dr. Bloch brings a plethora of experience as an educator over the last 25 years in both rural and large schools. Currently serving as Superintendent of Hamlin CISD, she has exhibited her leadership and excellence in education as an assistant superintendent, executive director of school leadership, principal, assistant principal, instructional coach, as well as a classroom teacher. She has a bachelor’s degree in communication studies and english from Texas State University and a master’s degree in educational leadership from Texas A&M Kingsville. She also holds a Doctorate in Educational Administration from Baylor University. She is excited to bring her steady, transparent and community-focused leadership style to our district. The board extends a warm welcome to Dr. Bloch and looks forward to building a collaborative partnership grounded in student success, support for educators, and meaningful connections with families and the community. This next chapter offers an opportunity to build upon Thrall ISD’s strong foundation while continuing to expand opportunities for every student. The board also expresses its sincere appreciation to Interim Superintendent Blake Schneider for his leadership, dedication, and service during this transition. His experience as an educator and district financial leader, along with his longstanding commitment to Thrall ISD, has provided valuable continuity for students, staff, and families. The board recognizes the significant responsibility he accepted in stepping into the interim role and is grateful for the care and professionalism he has brought to that work. Thrall ISD’s strength comes from the people who invest in its students each day—teachers, staff, district leaders, families, and community members. As the district moves forward, the board invites the entire Tiger community to join in welcoming Dr. Bloch and supporting a positive, collaborative transition. Together, Thrall ISD will continue honoring the traditions that unite its community while preparing students for a bright and promising future. Additional information regarding the leadership transition will be shared as it becomes available. ### For further information, please contact the Thrall ISD Administration Office.
