Congratulations to Morgan Pyles, Birdville ISD Graduate and Green Valley Elementary Teacher, for being selected as one of Fort Worth Magazines 2023 Top Teachers.
Having a deep sense of gratitude, after graduating from Birdville High School, Morgan Pyles knew she wanted to give back to the place that provided her foundational education. A few years later, she would return to Birdville ISD, becoming a teacher at Green Valley Elementary, where she emphasizes the importance of creating a calming environment for her students. Thanks to pursuing a career in education running in her family, Morgan knew from Day One she wanted to be a teacher. And she knew when she graduated high school precisely where she wanted to teach.
