It is an honor to serve as Director of Student Services in the Ludlow Independent School District. My career in education began here in Ludlow way back in January of 2000, when I started my student teaching in 1st and 4th grades. I was hired that summer as a 3rd grade teacher and taught at Mary A. Goetz Elementary for the next 7 years. I left the district to gain other experiences in curriculum, instruction and administration. I proudly returned in 2021 as principal at Mary A. Goetz for 3 years and now serve on the Central Office staff as the Director of Student Services. Once a Panther, always a Panther!
