Staff Update
Barbara Bush Elementary | Instruction & Information
November 15, 2019
Welcome Chris Roybal!
Chris will be starting with us Monday as a fourth grade teacher. Due to continued growth, Bush was given an additional allocation in fourth grade. Chris comes to us from Colorado where he has experience with the Units of Study in Reading. We will create a new fourth grade class, and Chris will be Kelly's teaching partner. He will teach ELA, and Kelly will teach math, science, and social studies.
Chris is married to Joanna. Joanna works at Texas Children's. They have two children: Brogan (4) and Delaney (who will be 2 in January).
Fourth grade parents have not been notified of a new teacher or any class changes. Debbie, Angie, and I will build the class and notify parents of children who will be moving to the new class. All fourth grade parents will be informed that we have a new teacher.
Chris will be here Monday. Please make him welcome.
