Principal

Chris Massey grew up in Campbell, Texas. He is entering his fourteenth year in public education. This is his ninth year in administration, with the last seven being served at Lakeview Elementary in Mabank. Prior to his time there, he also worked in Palestine, Terrell, and Yantis ISDs.

An interesting fact about Mr. Massey is that he was the first person in his family to graduate from high school, but he didn't stop there. He graduated from TAMU-Commerce where he received his bachelor's degree in Interdisciplinary Studies with an emphasis in Early Childhood Education, and he later earned his master's degree in Educational Leadership from Lamar University.

Mr. Massey's goal in education is to expose students to new ideas that will make them responsible and accountable for their learning, to excite students, and to show them that education can be a fun experience. He is married to Candace (who is a public school counselor) and has two daughters, Emory and Bristol.
