Member – GHF Grants Committee

A Texas A&M graduate, Denisse has served in public education for the last 16 years. She started as a third grade teacher in Grand Prairie ISD, and quickly joined Georgetown ISD in 2009. During her time in the classroom and as a math interventionist, Denisse was named teacher of the year, supported curriculum writing, implemented response to intervention within the master schedule, and was able to complete her master’s in educational leadership through Texas State University. She served as assistant principal at two elementary campuses in Georgetown ISD prior to opening a newly designed Purl Elementary in 2017 as campus principal. Dual language, social emotional learning, cross-campus collaboration, and on-going personalized professional learning are just a few of the initiatives she supported while leading the PK-5th grade campus.

 

Denisse truly believes in public education and the positive impact it has on our collective future. Collaborating with campus administrators, facilitating professional learning, and building relationships within the community are areas she’s excited about supporting as she moves into the Early Childhood/Title I Coordinator role within Georgetown ISD.
