Lee holds a BA degree in Elementary Education and a M. Ed. in Educational Leadership and Policy Studies

The Educator

From August 2002 until June 2008, Lee served as an educator with Dallas ISD. The first four years were as a classroom teacher - two years in 6th grade and two years in 5th grade. In 2006, Lee was selected to attend University of Texas-Arlington to earn a M. Ed. degree in Educational Leadership and Policy Studies.

This was a one-year cohort program. Since students paid for the courses themselves, they were not required to remain with the district.

During the school years 2006-2007 and 2007-2008, Lee served as Academic Coordinator at Silberstein and Gonzalez Elementary Schools (respectively). Gonzalez became a Recognized School during  Lee's year there.

Remembering what we are doing as educators:

Children are like seeds that can become beautiful plants. They need nurturing from us, support, intellectual food, and to be able to trust us. We cannot leave out trust. Many of our kids have no one else to trust.
