MEET JENNIFER
Born and raised in the piney woods of Northeast Texas, Jennifer Lee understands small-town values. As the daughter of an oil field worker and first-generation college graduate, Jennifer knows change only comes through hard work, grit, and determination. Jennifer graduated from Baylor University with a Bachelor’s Degree in Child and Family Studies in 2007, before spending years working with survivors of domestic violence.
Since then, Jennifer was called to pursue her passion: education. With unwavering support from her friends and family, Jennifer became a public-school teacher at Killeen ISD where she has worked for the past 13 years. Dedicating her life to our children, Jennifer earned her Master’s Degree in Education Administration from Lamar University in 2017, putting it to use as a community advocate for students and teachers—all while coaching youth sports in Temple.
Today, Jennifer is still fighting for safe, equitable education for all students. As a single mother and youth athletic coach, Jennifer lives every day by the Rita Wilson quote, “Every child deserves a champion,” and for the children of District 55, Jennifer Lee will be that champion.
