Who are the SuperCat teachers?

Mrs. Ball grew up as a Marine Corp brat, so she moved around a lot growing up.  She graduated from Texas A&M University.  She has 2 sons and 3 wonderful grandchildren.  This is Mrs. Ball's 11th year to teach reading here at Travis.

Mrs. Civello grew up in Hawkins, Texas.  She graduated from Texas Tech University with a Bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education.  She enjoyed school so much, she went back to Tarleton University to get her Master's Degree in Educational Administration.  She is a certified Principal, but loves teaching to much to leave it.  She still goes to all of the Tech football games.

Mrs. Forshage grew up (mostly) in the South.  She served eight years in the U.S. Army, doing two tours in Korea.  She graduated with honors from the University of North Texas and holds teaching certification in Math and English as a Second Language.  This is Mrs. Forshage's fourth year here at Travis.  

Coach Garza grew up in Midland, TX.  She graduated from Midland High School and played soccer her entire life including in college.  She attended the University of Dallas which gave her the opportunity to live in Italy for 6 months.  She is married to John Garza and they have the cutest 2 yr. old – Cole Garza and a cat named Bonkers.  Her two favorite things are Dr. Pepper and cheesecake.
