How We Got Our Name

Lee taught English at Carverdale High School, Dean Middle School, Cy-Fair High School and Jersey Village High School during her first 12 years and then served as a counselor at Arno
ld Middle School and Jersey Village for the next 17 years. She was named to a district-level position, serving as coordinator of academic achievement for five years before being named a director in 2002. She and her late husband, John, have three children— John Jr., Christie and Courtney, who are all graduates of Jersey Village High School. PTO

Good afternoon, Bus Buddies, Volunteers & CFISD friends,
The first day of school is just around the corner and it can be an anxious time for our first-time bus riders. That’s why we’re reaching out to our CFISD community of volunteers to ask for your help as a Bus Buddy on Monday, August 28, and/or Tuesday, August 29, 2023.
You can be a source of reassurance to our students, staff, bus drivers, and parents by volunteering just a few hours a day during the first two days of classes.
Thank you Lee PTO for the delicious lunch from Little Kitchen!
