🍎📚 Teacher Talks Tuesday!
This week we’re shining the spotlight on Ms. Monroe, who many of our families already know and love! She previously served as the Primary ACE Coordinator before joining us as a classroom teacher — and we’re lucky to have her shaping our youngest learners every day.
🧠 Teaching Philosophy:
“My teaching philosophy is one that is centered around creating a warm, inviting environment that is conducive to academic success. I believe in building strong relationships with students and families in order to understand their individual needs and tailor instruction accordingly.”
💡 Favorite Lightbulb Moment:
“Favorite light bulb moment is seeing students progress and grasp new concepts. The youngest minds are the most excited when they believe in themselves and see what they can accomplish.”
💚 Why I Love ECISD:
“I love being at EC because I teach at a school where students feel seen and valued. We, as teachers, have the opportunity to really get to know our students and their families, and we get to see them grow from PreK to graduation.”
⚓💛 We’re lucky to have Ms. Monroe shaping our future Bucs with so much heart, patience, and purpose. Once a Buc, always a Buc! 💚

⚓🍎 Teacher Talks Tuesday 🍎📚
With 28 years in education — including an incredible 26 years right here at East Chambers ISD — Mrs. Cathy Reddell continues to make a lasting impact on her students and community.
“In school life, you have to know your students. You have to meet them where they are and then challenge them to go beyond. The lightbulb for me is when students gain that confidence in themselves and understand what they can achieve with hard work.”
Her favorite thing about East Chambers I.S.D.? “We’re a family that supports one another. Whenever there’s a need, our school and community work together to solve whatever comes our way.”
A fun fact about Mrs. Reddell — she lived in Naples, Italy, for four years while her husband served in the U.S. Navy! She loves traveling to new places, reading, and hiking in the mountains.
Thank you, Mrs. Reddell, for 26 years of dedication to ECISD and for inspiring students to reach beyond what they thought possible. 💚💛

When one of our own needs support, Buccaneers pull together.
East Chambers coaches presented Darrell Tezeno with a $3,000 donation from the THSCA Benevolence Fund to support his fight against leukemia.
Community fundraisers on Nov. 8 and Nov. 22 will continue that wave of support.
