Having grown up in Taylor I feel a deep connection with the community, parents, and students. Both of my parents served as educators for Taylor ISD and played a huge role in my return to teach where I grew up. I have great memories of going to school in Taylor and love the fact that I am able help students gain the same feelings and experiences I had growing up here.

Taylor has the most amazing sense of community. The town and people have a way of rallying around the schools and kids. The Taylor community is one that is so welcoming we often see people leave town and come back to teach and continue living and caring for one another. That sense of community carries into our schools as we truly get to know the parents of our children because we soon see that they are neighbors, relatives, and alumni that continue giving back to our schools.

I am excited to see everyone’s positive outlook for our future! While we always honor our past, I can see how bright our future will be! #OnceADuckAlwaysADuck

I live each day to bless each of my students. I want them to feel safe, wanted, encouraged and cared for when they come into my classroom. As a teacher, it is not often you find a school district that makes you feel the same way. I absolutely love Taylor ISD because not only do they make me feel those same things I strive in my classroom, but they also make me feel heard, which is HUGE in our profession.

I started in 2019 and it has been a roller coaster of a ride. As a district, we have navigated through this season of changes. It was just amazing to see everyone come together for our students and community to ensure not only the learning needs, but physical needs of our students being met. Amongst all of the chaos, we still reached out to each other on our campuses and throughout the district making sure we all had what we needed, supported each other, met needs of our staff, and shared the joyous moments-like a family.

Taylor ISD is special because it makes you feel like you are part of one big family. I am pretty new to TISD and everyone I have met that works in TISD in a different capacity have been so friendly, helpful, and caring. Everyone always has a smile on their face! I am truly blessed to be part of Taylor ISD.

I love how we support one another. Our administrators and peers are incredible at cheering us on and challenging us to become the best we can be as we equip students for success.

From day 1, Taylor ISD makes you feel like you are part of the family. We are serious about: Once a duck, always a duck!
