Assistant Principal Named for West Cypress Hills Elementary
I am pleased to announce our new West Cypress Hills Elementary Assistant Principal, Mrs. Leanna Pesta.
Mrs. Pesta is coming to us from Manor ISD. She graduated from Mercyhurst University in Pennsylvania with her degree in Early Childhood Education. She continued her education at Gannon University and earned her Master of Education in Curriculum and Instruction. Mrs. Pesta is pursuing her Doctorate of Education in Educational Administration with a Superintendent Certification.
Mrs. Pesta began her teaching career in Pennsylvania as a Pre-Kindergarten Teacher but made her way to Austin in 2013 where she served as a Director of a private school. Mrs. Pesta's passion for teaching lead her back to the classroom in 2014 in Manor ISD where she is currently a 4th-Grade Teacher.
Mrs. Pesta's wide range of experience and strong leadership skills make her the perfect fit for our West Cypress Hills family and our new Assistant Principal.
Please join me in welcoming Mrs. Pesta to the Tiger Family.


The purpose for Kindergarten Entry Assessment is to help the Kindergarten teachers to better understand and assess your child's social and academic skills as he/she begins the new school year. Please choose a time convenient for you and your child.
For your convenience, school supply kits are available online. To order, use school account #79519. There is a kit for boys and a kit for girls. Kits ordered online are delivered to WCHE by the 1st day of school.
