At Austin Public Schools, our mission is to inspire, empower, and accelerate every one of our learners, and we know that the only way for us to reach this goal is through the efforts of all our incredibly hard-working staff.

"Abby always brings a positive attitude to every situation, gets along with everyone, and loves working with her students. Teachers play an essential role in any community and are greatly appreciated."
