Calling all families of educators: We want your stories!
Since HISD’s Office of Communications first launched its current version of Friday eNews in October of 2012, “I Am HISD” has proven to be one of its most popular features.
These weekly profiles highlight students, alumni, employees, and other team members who could be perceived as the “face” of HISD, and of the more than five dozen stories that have appeared in this section since its inception, some of the most-read entries have been about families of educators.
Whether it was the “Crooks of HISD” (brothers Clayton and Dameion Crook, who serve as principals at two different schools) in the July 12, 2013, edition; the LaPadulas in the Jan. 24, 2014, edition; or the Vaughns in the June 14, 2013, edition, people love hearing about combinations of families who work in HISD.
We’ve already received a few suggestions for other families to feature, but we’re always eager to hear about more. So if you know of two or more members of Team HISD who are related, please send us an email at info@houstonisd.org and tell us about them. Be sure to include any interesting trivia you might know about them, such as unusual hobbies, unpublicized accomplishments, or other details. They may be featured in an upcoming edition of Friday eNews!
