Tyler ISD administrators and staff honored 56 employees retiring from the District at its annual Retiree Luncheon today at Hollytree Country Club. With 1,381 combined years of service in education, 1,006 of which were in Tyler ISD, the retirees represented teachers, principals, food service, custodians, bus drivers, administrative assistants, nurses, librarians, and many other valuable professions in the District.

“It is always an honor to celebrate these educators who have given so much of themselves to our District throughout their careers, some of which have angel wings, I am sure of it,” Superintendent Dr. Marty Crawford said. “We appreciate their dedicated service and wish them well in their future endeavors.”

Sponsored by Cooperative Teachers Credit Union, Purdue Brandon Fielder Collins and Mott, LLP, and Tyler ISD Foundation, guests enjoyed a delicious lunch before being honored by Superintendent Dr. Marty Crawford and Board of Trustees members Andy Bergfeld, Wade Washmon, Dr. Patricia Nation, Yvonne Atkins, and Artis Newsome.
