We are pleased to introduce Amanda (Mandy) Stephens as Sherman ISD’s new Food Service Director. Mandy will lead the Food Service Administrative team, oversee daily food service department operations, set menus, develop culinary strategies and ensure compliance with federal program guidelines.

In her previous roles, she led the catering department at the Dallas Museum of Art, managed the food service production at Capital One Corporation, taught culinary at El Centro College, and privately consulted to establish a new restaurant operation within the Grayson County area. As the district chef at Denison ISD, Mandy established and implemented the catering and culinary strategy for the district, ensured menu compliance, and managed food cost budgets within the program.
Mandy is a certified chef and graduate of Le Cordon Bleu School of Culinary Arts. She is native to the Texoma /Bryan County area and currently lives in Kingston, Oklahoma with her husband Adam and daughter Coralie. In her spare time, Mandy enjoys spending time on the lake.
