I love Wylie ISD for so many reasons! I love my school community at Tibbals. We have the best admin and staff, it is like a family. My husband was born and raised in Wylie..football games are like a high school reunion and I love that about our town.
My oldest daughter graduated from Wylie and spent her time in high school playing soccer and in FFA. My youngest daughter plays softball and raises pigs in FFA. No matter where we go, we see a familiar face and that's what makes this place home.

Wylie ISD doesn't just feel like home, it is home. Home to the most amazing families, teachers, admins and most importantly all the students.
Finding a district that preaches relationships over anything else was crazy, working at a campus with admin who actually expects relationships to be built and staff who actually does it and puts KIDS FIRST? A DREAM.
With relationships first, every other good thing in a school follows. The kids I get to teach and the families I get to work with make my job worthwhile. The way Wylie celebrates their teachers, staff and students is over the moon. I am so blessed to call Wylie ISD not just the place where I work, but a place that I love to be.

I love everything about Wylie ISD. I am currently student teaching at Tibbals and will be a third grade teacher there starting in August, I am beyond thrilled! I grew up in Wylie and went to Birmingham, Dodd, Davis, McMillan, and Wylie High School.
My mom worked in the district so I really know the love and hard work that goes into a district. I knew when I decided to become a teacher I wouldn't want to teach anywhere else but here. I feel at home here. I know Wylie does what is best for kids, they support their staff and love their people! They make everyone feel welcome.
I love Wylie ISD for those reasons.
