On Aug. 31, students at Tobias Elementary School celebrated the birthday of Rosalio Tobias, the namesake of the campus. Tobias, a veteran of the U.S. Army and a Southwest Texas State University graduate, was the first Latino to be elected to the Hays CISD school board in 1981. Tobias, who also kickstarted the Tobias Learning Resource Center at Kyle Elementary, served as school board president from 1988-1993. Tobias Elementary was opened in fall 2003.
