Charlcya Wheeler, in her 18th year as a La Porte ISD trustee, resigned at the Board’s Sept. 7 regular meeting, effective immediately. In a letter to her Board colleagues, Wheeler cited health concerns as her reason for stepping down. “Her true love and devotion for the entire community are what called her to serve, and serve she did,” said Kathy Green, a fellow trustee and longtime friend of Wheeler’s. “It was never about her, but about the community and everything else.” Trustees on Tuesday said they would consider appointing a temporary board member to fill Wheeler’s seat until the next election in May 2022.
