Welcome to Navarro Junior High, home of the Panthers. As Principal, along with a dedicated and knowledgeable staff, we will create a challenging environment aimed at helping students reach their potential. We will also strive to provide a safe and nurturing environment for all of our students. Navarro Jr. High would like to encourage parents to participate in your child’s education. I believe that strong parent/school partnerships are a key to helping our students succeed.

As we embark on the upcoming school year, I’m excited to work with all stakeholders to support the academic and social-emotional needs of our students by providing high-quality instruction and opportunities for students to engage in enrichment and extracurricular activities. 

I look forward to working with you and your child this school year; please contact me at 830-401-5550 or by email, if I can be of any assistance.

As the Assistant Principal, I'm eager to support our students and staff in achieving their academic and personal goals.

This year marks my 15th year in education, and I've always been passionate about helping young people reach their full potential. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time outdoors camping, hiking, and traveling. These experiences have taught me the importance of perseverance, adaptability, and a positive outlook.

I'm committed to fostering a safe, supportive, and inclusive learning environment where all students feel valued and respected. I believe in building strong relationships with our students, parents, and staff, and I look forward to working together to create a memorable and successful school year.

Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or concerns. I'm here to support you and your child in any way I can.

Hello Panthers! With 28 years in education, I’ve had the privilege of serving students and families in both elementary and middle school classrooms. For the past four years, I’ve worked in an administrative role, supporting students, staff, and families in meaningful ways. I am thrilled to now bring that experience to the incredible Navarro community.

I truly believe that junior high is a unique and pivotal time in a child’s life—full of growth, discovery, and potential. I am committed to creating a safe, welcoming, and engaging environment where all students can thrive academically, socially, and emotionally. Partnering with families is a crucial part of that success, and I look forward to building strong connections with you. I can’t wait to meet our students and their families, learn more about what makes Navarro so special, and work alongside Principal Beutnagel and the amazing staff here to continue supporting student success.

Please don’t hesitate to stop by, say hello, or reach out with any questions. Here's to a fantastic school year ahead!

Welcome to Navarro Junior High. I am honored to serve the Navarro ISD community in a new capacity as the Secondary Academic Dean. It is a privilege to support our dedicated teachers, hardworking students, and committed families as we continue the tradition of excellence that defines our secondary campuses.

As I transition from my role as an elementary principal, I bring with me a passion for student success and a deep commitment to academic growth at every level. At the junior high and high school level, we have a unique opportunity to help students develop the skills, knowledge, and confidence they need to thrive in college, career, and life beyond graduation. Our mission remains centered on connection, high expectations, and continuous improvement.

Together with our incredible staff, I look forward to partnering with families to support students as they explore advanced academics, career pathways, extracurriculars, and leadership opportunities. Strong communication and collaboration between home and school are essential to student success, and we encourage you to reach out with any questions, ideas, or concerns.

Please stay connected by exploring our campus website, following us on social media, or joining us for the many events and programs throughout the year. I am excited about the journey ahead and the opportunity to work alongside you to help every Panther reach their full potential.
