Heather Jackson, M.Ed.
I’m Heather Jackson, and I’ve been passionate about education since 2015. I’m a proud graduate of the University of North Texas and am honored to serve as an Assistant Principal. On a personal note, I’ve been happily married since 2009, and my family is my pride and joy. I have three wonderful children: Gage, Dayten, and Presley. When I’m not at work, you can usually find me at my daughter Presley's cheer competitions, enjoying the great outdoors, or cheering on my favorite sports teams—Go Cowboys!
