Life Skills

My name is Jamie Foster.  This is my 16th year to teach at Van Buren Elementary and my 21st year all together.  I am originally from Illinois and went to college at Eastern Illinois University, where I earned my degree. I have 2 children who attended PNGISD. My husband, Yancey is a Hamshire Fannett graduate, class of 1990.  He went to Lamar University and University of Texas medical branch in Houston.  He is a nurse practitioner and owns and operates a local urgent care clinic.  My daughter, Maddy, is a junior at Lamar University studying nursing.  My son, Yancey, is a process operator at Goodyear and will marry his beautiful fiance, Jensen, in November.  I have 2 beautiful granddaughters and the oldest, Hudsyn, starts kindergarten in NISD this school year.  My other granddaughter, Haidyn, just turned 1 and is so much fun!   I am an Indian through and through and love the purple and white but I am also the mother to a English Bulldog, Vinny and MiMi to Nederland Bulldogs.  I am so excited for the 2019-20 school year.
