Our new Special Education Teacher, Hannah Patrick, is originally from Fayetteville, Arkansas. She graduated from the University of Arkansas in 2021 and began her teaching career shortly after by accepting a position in Jonesboro. She has experience teaching students in grades K–6 and is thrilled to be joining the amazing team at Intermediate School.
Hannah is married to her husband, Andrew Patrick, and together they have two sweet cats. In her free time, she enjoys painting, drawing, singing, and dancing. She also loves spending time in nature, going to the river with friends, and listening to Andrew play guitar.
Her passion as an educator is to help all students believe in themselves—no matter what. She is excited for the journey ahead and looks forward to a wonderful year!
One of her favorite quotes reflects her positive approach to teaching and life:
“Believe you can and you're halfway there.” – Theodore Roosevelt

This inaugural video features Tapanga Rush, a Gentry High School senior working toward certification as a veterinary assistant through the school’s Animal Science Career & Technical Education (CTE) Program.

Pioneers, I wanted to provide a quick update on the District Baseball and Softball Tournaments, as well as the District Track Meet we are hosting this week. Due to weather-related adjustments: The semifinal round of the baseball and softball tournaments is now scheduled for Thursday afternoon, with the finals set for Friday. The District Track Meet has also been moved to Friday. I am excited to share that both our baseball and softball teams have advanced to the semifinals! We’d love to see you out there supporting our student-athletes if you’re able to attend. Check out the Gentry Athletics Website for full brackets and schedules. Thanks for your continued support and flexibility!

We are excited to welcome Taylor Lewis to Gentry Public Schools as our new Middle School Assistant Principal. Taylor holds a Master’s degree in Educational Leadership from Arkansas State University and a Bachelor’s degree in Mathematics from the University of Arkansas. He brings 12 years of teaching experience, having worked with students in every grade from 6th through 12th and covering nearly every mathematics subject along the way. Taylor even spent a year teaching preschool and English credit recovery—though, thankfully, not at the same time.
Throughout his career, Taylor has taught and held teacher leadership roles at three different schools. He is thrilled to now call Gentry home and to join the Gentry School District. Taylor’s wife, Loren, serves as the Recruiting Director and HR Supervisor at Camp War Eagle. Together, they are raising two energetic boys who love soccer, Pokémon, Minecraft, and rollercoasters.
Taylor feels deeply grateful and excited for the opportunity to be part of the Gentry School District, a community he describes as having prestige, heart, and incredible potential. He looks forward to serving the students, staff, and broader community and believes this opportunity marks the beginning of something truly special.
In his free time, Taylor enjoys watching sports—especially cheering for the Arkansas Razorbacks, Philadelphia Eagles, and Golden State Warriors. He also loves playing video games with his family and is an enthusiastic fantasy football player. True to his background in math, Taylor often creates detailed spreadsheets for his fantasy teams—whether or not they improve his standings, they always make draft day a lot more fun.
