Vinson begins new year, second decade as school chief

by | Aug 12, 2021 | Latest

Editor’s note: First in a two-part series looking at David Vinson’s first 10 years as Wylie ISD superintendent.

David Vinson said he has loved every job he’s had, including his position now as su­perintendent of Wylie ISD.

He became the school chief 10 years ago, in July 2011, succeeding H. John Full­er, who had served from 1993. The district has had just three superintendents in the last half-century. Before Fuller, Don Whitt served from 1972 to 1993.

But Vinson is more than just the superin­tendent. He’s a proud Texas Tech Red Raider and a husband and father.
