WHEREAS, Donna Jenschke is retiring as principal of Ingram |
|
|
Elementary School at the end of the 2022-2023 school year, drawing |
|
|
to a close an exemplary career in public education that has spanned |
|
|
nearly four decades; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Mrs. Jenschke began her career 38 years ago as a |
|
|
teacher in the Kerrville Independent School District, and she went |
|
|
on to serve at a number of other schools in the district, including |
|
|
Fred H. Tally Elementary School, where she was assistant principal, |
|
|
and B. T. Wilson Sixth Grade School, where she was principal; in |
|
|
2010, she was appointed principal of Hal Peterson Middle School, |
|
|
and during her tenure there, the school earned recognition from the |
|
|
Texas Business and Education Coalition and was named an exemplary |
|
|
campus by the Texas Education Agency for six years in a row; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, In 2017, Mrs. Jenschke joined Ingram ISD as the |
|
|
principal of Ingram Elementary, and under her able leadership, the |

|
|
its students; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, This esteemed educator holds a bachelor's degree in |
|
|
education from Angelo State University and a master's degree in |
|
|
education leadership from Texas Tech University; though she plans |
|
|
on returning to Ingram Elementary as a part-time administrator, |
|
|
retirement will afford her more time to spend with her husband, |

|
|
WHEREAS, Over the course of her remarkable career, Donna |
|
|
Jenschke has made a positive difference in the lives of countless |

|
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|
|
prepared for Mrs. Jenschke as an expression of high regard by the |
|
|
