Hello Students and Families,

Welcome to a new school year of 8th Grade Advanced and Gift Talented English at Euless Junior High School 2026-2027.

Over 26 years of educational experience brings me to my 12th year at Euless Junior High School.  Previously,  I taught 8th Grade  English and AP English at International Leadership of Texas (ILT).  Prior to ILT,  I spent years in administration in Fort Worth and  Hurst Euless Bedford  Independent Schools.   Additionally,  I taught  reading and English in grades 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th in Fort Worth,  Murfreesboro, Tennessee  and St. Louis, Missouri.

My two delightful daughters, both graduated of  L. D. Bell High School.  My  eleven old granddaughter Lyric, and three year old grandson, Quenton Jr.  keep me very busy.  Lyric is curious and loves to read mystery and science adventures.  The Bedford Library is her second home when she comes to visit.  Quenton Jr. is  running,  climbing and enjoys learning with his favorite shows:  "Mrs. Rachel" and  "Gracie's Corner."  I am also excited about a newest  addition to the family,  Little Nia.   Nia is my  2 year old granddaughter,  bouncing and scuttling as fast as lightening on the floor.  Climbing at the park playground and listening to mom and dad read is definitely her favorite past time.

Contact me by email, sonyalardge@hebisd.edu or phone (817)354-3340 ext: 6698 to answer any additional questions or address your concerns.  My 7th period conference time is 2:45 until 3:35 and I am available after school until 4:30 pm, Monday through Thursday.

I look forward to working collaboratively with my students and families, setting high expectations, and  continuing a legacy of success.  

Mrs. Lardge, M. Ed
