Name:
[Candidate Withdrawn] Sarah Teale

District:
[Candidate Withdrawn] District 4

[Candidate Withdrawn] Sarah Teale is running for election for the school board in District 4. She currently has a freshman who attends NBHS and she has a homeschooling Junior who will be attending the Fire Academy next Fall in the Alamo College System as a dual enrollment high schooler. Sarah has spent the last decade homeschooling her boys, but the family moved to New Braunfels because her youngest wanted to attend a traditional high school. Before returning home to educate, and tend the hearth, Sarah spent time as a Public School Teacher with Houston ISD, a CPS Field Investigator, an Enrollment Specialist at Big Brother and Big Sisters, and a Presenter with the Pebble Program which is a part of Communities in Schools. Nowadays you will find her tending her garden, gathering eggs from her chickens, or sitting in her driveway by the fire visiting her neighbors. Sarah and her family believe deeply in the importance of community, service, and civic involvement. Sarah is hoping to bring a new perspective to the Board that bridges an ever deepening partisan gap.
