She met her husband Darrin of 30 years during her junior year in high school. He would later graduate from Texas State Technical College where she followed him to Waco before he received a job at Tom Light Chevrolet in Bryan, Texas. During that time in College Station, Tammy Witten decided to go back to school and become a teacher. Graduating from Texas A&M, she landed her first job in 1998 at Navasota ISD as a fourthgrade math and science teacher for two years before moving schools to College Station teaching third grade and an instructional coach for four years working with staff development. She then became an assistant principal at Splendora Elementary for two years which the first year was a grades 3-5 campus that transitioned to a kindergarten through fifth grade campus.

With the changes of bringing fifth grade back to the Roberts Street campus, Witten was meeting with team leaders last week in preparations of where the classrooms will be.

In twenty years in education, Witten says the challenges today are different than two decades ago.
