About Mrs. Travis
Welcome back, hope you all had a wonderful summer. We have a great staff at Oak Woods, and your child will be enriched and engaged throughout this new year.
I want to tell you a little bit about myself. I teach 5th grade Math at Oak Woods. This is my 19th year and I love teaching MATH!!!!! Prior to my career as a teacher, I worked in retail for 13 years. I was employed with Neiman Marcus, in Dallas. I started in the North Park store as a Department Manager and went through their Executive Training program to become a buyer. It was a very exciting career. I traveled all over the world, to places like Hong Kong, Italy, France, England and New York. I designed a Private Label line in Hong Kong and I managed a 8 million dollar business, which I grew to 12 million in 3 years.
Everything changed when I had children. It was very difficult to leave them every month, because the travel was extensive. I decided to stay home and raise them, until they reached school age. I then went back to school, to get my teaching certification, and started a new career. It's the best decision I've ever made and it has been extremely rewarding!
I have been married 33 years to my wonderful husband Jim. We have 2 beautiful children. Alexandra who is 28 and Luke who is 26 both are graduates of Texas A&M, Whoop!!!! We have lived in Granbury for 23 years, and absolutely love the community.
