Recognize SomeONE Recognize SomeONE

The Recognize SomeONE submissions are pouring in, and we're sharing a few for teachers in the Flower Mound community. As a reminder, you can visit LISD.net/Recognize any time to submit your own encouragement for LISD staff.

  • Holly Egan, Flower Mound High School | Ms. Egan is the attendance clerk for 3 of my children. She’s always very helpful and prompt! My kids are always saying how she will remember things going on in their lives and say things like “good luck” or “hope you have fun”. These comments mean a lot and we appreciate her positive attitude!
  • Jenny McHenry, Forestwood | As we close our middle school chapter, we remember how it all started. For both boys starting middle school was a scary time, until they walked into the orchestra room. They were met with a great big smile and a friendly voice welcoming them. You not only helped them learn how to play an instrument, but truly brought the joy of music into all of our lives and it is here to stay! Thank you for always being so kind and open to all students at Forestwood! We are blessed to have you in our lives!

  • Lindsey Weber, Garden Ridge | Ms. Weber has been a welcome addition this year to GRE. She is consistently working to ensure her students are learning at high levels and engaged as young children in the classroom. She knows details and quirks about every single one of her students and they love her so much, some of them would rather sit and chat with her than play on the playground at recess. Ms. Weber has a true heart for teaching and works to help make GRE a better place to work every day. I am grateful for her everyday!
