In honor of #BlackHistoryMonth, we spotlight our Deputy Superintendent/Chief of Staff Ronald Jones! π See his responses to our spotlight questions below or by visiting tylerisd.org/bhm
What inspired you to become an educator?
"The educator inspiration for me came as a teenager from having a summer job at a residential facility for special needs individuals. I decided then to become a special education teacher. Low and behold, I finished college with a degree in Computer Info Systems/Business Administration. Fast forward three years and I found myself right where I should have been all along, a special education teacher. Being an educator is a calling."
What is the importance of Black History Month?
"Celebrating Black History Month presents a chance for today's youth to learn of the awesome contributions African Americans have made throughout the history of the United States in all areas. Black History Month serves as a self-worth builder, motivation to always strive for excellence for minority students, particularly African American students, and shines a light on the fact students have the ability and opportunity to do and become anything they desire to beβhard work pays off."

In honor of #BlackHistoryMonth, we spotlight our Chief of School Leadership, Dr. Johnita Ward! π Get to know her by reading her responses to our spotlight questions below or visiting tylerisd.org/bhm
What inspired you to become an educator?
"My father inspired me to become an educator. He dedicated 54 years of his life to education and I watched him devote countless hours mentoring and educating children, especially those from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. He understood that children need caring adults who are invested in them and their learning. His impact on our small community was massive, and I realized at an early age that I too wanted to have a positive impact on others as an educator."
What is the importance of Black History Month?
"Black History Month is a powerful reminder that Black History is American history. It is essential to the ongoing story of Americaβs fight for freedom, progress, and our aspirations. Celebrating Black History Month is a wonderful time to honor the contributions, sacrifices, and legacy of African Americans that played an integral role in shaping our great nation."
