Mrs. Parsons and her husband Todd have 3 children, Carlee, Tanner, and Chandler, all of whom attend Smithville ISD schools. As a former educator in Smithville ISD, Mrs. Parsons feels it is important for teachers to have someone on the board who can be a voice for them and their needs. Having worked as an educator she has a first-hand view of where teachers are and a different level of understanding when it comes to their requests, concerns, etc. As a parent of 3 children that attend SISD on multiple campuses, she can relate well to parents and their children and be a voice for them also.
