Dyslexia Support Services Provider - Ms. Taylor Gutierrez

 

Three words to describe me: Passionate, driven, and loving

What is something you would like your students and parents to know about you, your personality, or your philosophy on teaching?
I have a loving husband and 2 beautiful children who attend Spicewood. They are my heart and my whole world. Their love and support allow me to do what I love the most, teach. I believe that every child can learn, but maybe not in the same way or in the same time frame. It's our jobs as teachers to find the best way to teach each child and work hard until they have success. I have seen what happens when everyone works together for the success of a child,  and the end result is priceless. This is why I love being a dyslexia teacher. I love working with teacher's and parents to make my students day at school a positive experience. My students amaze me every day! Their resilience and commitment inspires me and motivates me when I get tired.

Favorite Dessert: Anything oreo and/or chocolate

Favorite thing about teaching: Making a difference in my students lives!

 

What is your favorite morning beverage? Coffee with a lot of sweet creamer

Welcome to Spicewood PTA!

Welcome!

Spicewood PTA Website is undergoing maintenance in advance of the 2023-2024 school year.
Some functions and information may be temporarily disabled.
Thank you for your patience!

Welcome to the Spicewood Elementary PTA! Our PTA is a group of parents, caregivers, teachers, school staff, and community members who have joined together with the shared goals of advocacy, family engagement, programming for kids, and support for our school.

The Spicewood PTA was formed:

  • To promote the welfare of children and youth in home, school, and throughout the community;
  • To raise the standards of home life;
  • To advocate for laws that further the education, physical and mental health, welfare, and safety of children and youth;
  • To promote the collaboration and engagement of families and educators in the education of children and youth;
  • To engage the public in united efforts to secure the physical, mental, emotional, spiritual and social well-being of all children and youth; and
  • To advocate for fiscal responsibility regarding public tax dollars in public education funding

We value collaboration, commitment, diversity, respect, and accountability.  However, we cannot do this alone.  The Spicewood Community needs involvement from all families in order to best support our children.  Whether you choose to volunteer in a classroom, assist with an event, become a Panther Partner, or simply join as a member, you are doing your part to make Spicewood Elementary the BEST environment for growth.
