A longtime law enforcement officer has been tabbed to helm a recently created Hays CISD position dedicated to campus security.

Phillip Taylor, who has worked in a variety of positions at the Hays County Sheriff’s Office (HCSO), and is also the Mayor of Mountain City, was named as Hays CISD’s first Director of Safety and Security in an Aug. 23 press release.

Hays CISD leadership created the position over the summer to focus on campus safety, said Superintendent Eric Wright in a statement. The new position will oversee security at all 23 campuses; Hays CISD is projecting enrollment to surpass 20,000 students this school year.
