Hello, Bear Creek Elementary! My name is Kristina Davis, and I am beyond excited to be joining the BCE family! A little about me, I have lived in Texas and in the HEB, GCISD area my whole life. I am a military wife and mother to 3 great kids ages 2, 9, and 15. We are a crazy family of 5 and there is never a dull moment. My free time right now is filled with football, baseball, and volleyball. Outside of sports, we try to be outdoors doing things as a family as much as possible. I have my bachelor’s degree in early childhood education and am pursuing my master's in organizational management. I’ve known for years that I wanted to be in education and working with kids, showing them the joys and excitement of learning and helping them find their passion and confidence within themselves to grow and try new things. Before coming to BCES I was a YMCA and club volleyball coach. I also worked for BISD as an AVID tutor. From there I was a part of an online school, STRIDE K12 as a student support advisor and a student engagement specialist. Most recently though, I was a teacher assistant for PK at Bransford Elementary and loved every minute of it. Having my own classroom has been a longtime dream and I’m thrilled to be starting the journey here with Bear Creek. I look forward to meeting each and every one of you!
Hi BCES family! My name is Kendra Spence and I am thrilled to be joining your amazing 3rd grade team! My husband and I are moving from Central Texas, where we have lived and taught for 7 years after graduating from UMHB. I have taught 1st grade and 3rd grade and am especially passionate about literacy and social-emotional skills. My husband will be teaching and coaching at CHHS- Go Panthers!! 🏈 In my free time, I especially enjoy crafts, writing, sports, and the beach. I can’t wait to get to know all of you and to serve our kiddos and community alongside you! ♥️
Hey Cubs! My name is Jenna Brosette and I’ll be joining Bear Creek as your Student Learning/Reading Support Specialist. This will be my 8th year in GCISD and 16th year in education! I’ve served the district the past six years supporting early literacy and new hires, including co-leading the First Year Teacher Academy. I am working towards my principal certification and am overjoyed to be back on a campus I can call home. My husband, Ryan, and I have two boys (7 and 13) and two, four-legged girls (almost 1 and 6). My youngest son has dyslexia which has deepened my passion to close reading gaps for all kids. I believe that all children can and will succeed with support to do hard things, empathy, and research-based instruction! When I’m not sharing my passion for literacy, you can find me on Lake Texoma soaking up some sunshine with my family! I look forward to seeing you at The Creek this August!
Hello Bear Creek Elementary! My name is Tabetha Deshotel and I am so excited to be joining the BCE family! I was born and raised in Beaumont, Texas, and moved to Dallas, Texas after graduating with my Bachelors from Lamar University in 2021 (Peck’em Cards!). After graduating, I became a substitute teacher and now I am ecstatic to start my teaching career! In my free time, I enjoy hanging out with my friends, family, and pug named Buster. I am thrilled to be a part of the 4th-grade team and I am looking forward to an amazing school year!
