(RED OAK, TX) — Red Oak ISD and the ROISD Education Foundation collaborated to honor Parents, Partners, and Volunteers at the second annual appreciation reception on April 17.

These parents and volunteers are often part of the PTA, support student incentives and awards, staff appreciation activities, and volunteer at school functions like the book fair, field trips, and family academic nights. They also acknowledged their campus partners of the year, who have donated time, in-kind items, and financially to support students and staff at the school.

- Eastridge Elementary – Erika Rylander
- Red Oak Elementary – Elizabeth Inyang
- Schupmann Elementary – Victoria Gray
- Shields Elementary – Brandy Horton
