My name is Ms. Montgomery. Some of you may know me from teaching fourth grade at Granger the past 2 years. This year I am excited to be joining the second grade team. I started as a second grade teacher back in NY when I began my career 15 years ago. I am so happy to be teaching this grade level once again. I grew up in Saratoga Springs, NY. I graduated from Saratoga Central Catholic High School with honors. I received my BA in Psychology from Siena College. I earned my Masters in Childhood Education and a Masters in Literacy from Sage Graduate School. I earned my M.Ed. in Educational Leadership from UNT. I have a passion for educating children so they can have a bright future. When I am not working, I enjoy selling real estate and networking. I love spending time with my family and friends especially Emory and Zoey who I am proud to say call me Aunt Tiffany. I enjoy shopping, theatre, trips to Disney World, dining out and watching reality TV.
My name is Mrs. Benoit. This will be my 21st year teaching and my 8th year teaching 2nd grade. I grew up in Austin and taught there for 10 years before moving to Fort Worth. I graduated with my BBA from Stephen F. Austin State University and both my Med and MA from Texas State University. My husband Frank is a high school teacher in Irving ISD. We will celebrate our 23rd anniversary in October and we have 3 wonderful children. Our oldest daughter Madeline is a college freshman at UTA and Mia is a Sophomore at Byron Nelson High School. Charlie is a 6th grader at Tidwell Middle School. We have a German shepherd/hound mix named Zeke. When I’m not teaching I love watching all my children’s activities and anything outdoors.
Hello! My name is Mrs. Sund. This year marks my 23rd year as a classroom teacher and my first year at Granger. In addition to 2nd grade, I have taught 1st, 3rd, and 5th grade. My family recently moved here from Colorado where I was born and raised. I received a BA from the University of Northern Colorado and my MA from Walden University. I have been married to my husband, Jeremy, for 17 years and we have two amazing girls Adelyn and Brooklyn. Adelyn will be a Junior at Eaton and Brooklyn will be a 6th grader at Worthington. In my freetime you’ll find me curled up with a book, playing games with my family, or enjoying time outside. This football season, I am looking forward to cheering on my favorite team the Denver Broncos!
Hello! My name is Mrs. Hesters. This will be my 7th year at Granger! I was lucky enough to spend two years in PE, one year as a campus/library assistant and a little over a semester in Art before moving to second grade in February of 2022. I grew up in Houston, TX and graduated from Jersey Village High School. I received my Environmental Design (architecture) degree from Texas A&M University. My husband Shane and I have been married for 22 years this year. I have two amazing boys - Colton will be an 8th grader at Tidwell and Davis will be a Sophomore at Byron Nelson High School. We have a giant rescue dog named Buddah who thinks he is tiny. When I’m not teaching, I love watching my boys play sports, hanging out with friends and family and walking/jogging around the neighborhood!
