Hello,
My name is Tracy M. McCarty and I have the privilege of serving as one of the school counselors at Thomas Haley Elementary,
I am originally from Jackson, MS and have lived in the DFW area for the past 23 years. Before relocating to Texas, I attended Jackson State University where I received my Bachelors of Science degree in Biology. After college, I decided to embrace my love and passion for children and enrolled in an Alternative Certification program to become a teacher. My teaching career began in 2005, as a 7th grade Science teacher and girls coach in Richardson ISD. After 3 years in RISD, I taught 8th grade Science in Dallas ISD for 4 years. In 2012, I was given the opportunity to join Irving ISD as a school counselor and this will be my 14th year serving the Thomas Haley community.
My role as one of T.H.E. school counselors has truly been rewarding and I am excited to continue working with students, teachers, staff and parents that are vested in student success.
My hobbies include spending time with my husband, daughter and extended family, taking leisure walks, and traveling.
