BISD: Expected to rename high school after Travis Bryan Jr.

School board members are expected to vote on renaming Bryan High after Travis Bryan Jr. during a 6 p.m. meeting Monday at the administration building.

In September, Travis Bryan Jr., whose family is the namesake for the city, died at the age of 87. He was a banker who was involved in many community organizations over the decades.

Superintendent Mike Cargill said he wanted to honor Bryan and the work he did for the community by renaming the school. He said he expected the vote to pass.
