Our staff spotlight honoree for the month is Veronica Pyle. Ms. Pyle is the campus secretary at East Elementary. She graduated from Lamesa High School, and is currently working towards an education certification. Ms. Pyle worked as substitute teacher for Brownwood ISD during the 2018-2019 school year, and was hired full-time in 2019. Prior to her current role, she worked as a teacher’s aide at Woodland Heights Elementary and East Elementary.

There are not enough good things to say about Ms. Veronica (Ronnie) Pyle to adequately describe what a huge asset she is to the East campus. She has an uncanny ability to anticipate the needs of those around her and she lightens the load by taking the initiative to get things done. In addition to the workload of her position, she also helps students with directions, Pre-K with lunch duty, filling ice packs for scraped knees or bumped heads, and even taking out the office trash to ease the job of the custodians. Ms. Pyle is friendly and inviting to guests of the campus, and helpful and professional with her coworkers. She is willing to do whatever needs to be done with a smile. East staff often joke (but really mean it) that “Ronnie” runs the school. She is the glue that holds East together.
