MEET JARED
Meet Jared D. Breckenridge: A fourth-generation Austin native, Jared is currently running to be your next Austin Independent School District At-Large Trustee. Born and raised on the East side of Austin, Jared has personal experience as both an AISD student and –– most recently –– as a substitute teacher for the district. While serving as a substitute teacher, Jared has had the opportunity to instruct, engage with, and learn from hundreds of students, parents, and faculty members all across our district. In fact, many of you and your children may know Jared as "Mr. B." or "Coach B."
