 The 2016 Tenaha ISD Hall of Honor Inductees Named
 
A time honored tradition continues at Tenaha Independent School District.  Tenaha ISD recognizes those that have displayed outstanding dedication and commitment to their community.  Through the years numerous members have been initiated into the Hall of Honor. 
 
The process begins with nominations from members of the community.  A committee then begins the difficult task of deciding who will be chosen.   This year’s committee is proud to announce that Terry Bowlin and Randy Jackson is the 2016 Hall of Honor Inductees.

Terry Bowlin has been a resident of Tenaha since the 1980s.  She is a graduate of Center High School and graduated from Stephen F. Austin State University in 1989 with a Bachelor’s degree then completed her Master’s Degree in Educational Leadership in 2008.  
 
Terry has been a trusted and loyal member of the Tenaha Independent School District for twenty-seven years.  She has served many roles at Tenaha ISD.  She taught special education, 5th grade, served as the Reading First Grant coordinator and Elementary Principal for five years before taking over as Special Education Director.  Terry’s loyalty and willingness to serve all the students of TISD has been her greatest contribution.  She truly “bleeds maroon” and has served as a strong “right hand” to two Tenaha superintendents.  Terry was also instrumental in founding the renowned Tiger Café and is always on hand to serve the fans and Tenaha community.  A career shrouded in praise and awards, including the District’s Most Valuable Employee in 2012, Terry Bowlin’s efforts have truly made TISD the standard bearer in public education.  
 
Together with her husband Bryan, they have two children, Emily, who graduated in 2007 as Valedictorian and Wade, who graduated in 2008 also as Valedictorian.

Randy Jackson is a 1985 graduate of Tenaha High School.  He is a twenty-six year veteran of education as a coach and teacher.  He has been an outstanding career of head football coach for sixteen years with a record of 133 wins and 61 losses.  Randy has led programs of all classification in Texas, including his first job at 1A Paducah in West Texas and eventually to 5A Mesquite Poteet and 6A Plano East.  
 
Randy was named the Texas 4A Coach of the Year in 2010 when he led the Mesquite Poteet to a 12-3 semi-final appearance.  The two years prior to his arrival the Pirates struggled with a 1-19 record.  He is currently the head football coach and boys’ coordinator in Grapevine where he is in his third year. 
 
In 2015 Randy was the recipient of the coveted Tom Landry Award.  The award exemplifies a coach’s team for winning on and off the field.  
 
Randy continues to strive to be the best on and off the field.  Years of experience and success led Randy to recently writing his first book titled, Culture Defeats Strategy-7 Lessons on Leadership from a Texas High School Coach.  The book is set for release in December.  
 
Randy has been married to his wife, Shannon, for twenty-one years.  She is a middle school math teacher at Colleyville Middle School.  They have two children: Russ, 16 and Katie, 15.  Both attend Grapevine High School.
