Congratulations to Katie Tucker on breaking her school record in the 1600m with a new time of 5:15.57! She also set a meet record and facilities record at the Waxahachie Life Invitational.
Both her and her husband Derrick Alexander work for @KaufmanISD helping better kids lives in the classroom and on the athletic fields.
Angela was also a stud cross country runner for Midwestern State back in the day!
Keep being amazing! ❤️

Nothing has made me more excited this football season than to be a part of this:
Today is a #BigDayforTeachers & I’m honored to give a DonorsChoose gift card via @CFPExtraYard to say thank you to my amazing cousin @_CoachDees_ who is a MS science teacher and @XcKaufman coach!
Katie Tucker ran an amazing race in the 3200m at the Region 2-4A meet this morning! She placed 🥉 setting a new school record 11:18, breaking the old mark of 11:24 by Angela Dees, who is now one of Katie’s coaches. @KaufmanLions@Kaufman_High@KaufmanISD
Katie Tucker officially replaced me as the 3200m Kaufman HS record holder with a time of 11:18.63, placing 3rd @ the Regional Championships! I am so proud. I knew she was destined for great things from the very first mile I watched her run. Way to go Katie, it’s yours now! 🦁
UPDATE: We have new pictures to pass along of Alijah Kensinger, the missing six-year-old in Monroe County who remains the subject of a #TNAMBERAlert. (We've also corrected the spelling of his first name.)
If you spot Alijah, call 1-800-TBI-FIND.
Alijah Kensinger went missing Thursday after he went to play in the woods in the backyard with his dog. Soon after, the dog came back wet and without Alijah. https://t.co/ztawsqkRWE
I am very proud of Edwin and Katie! It’s been so much fun to watch them grow up, and to see them be able to experience a moment like this after all of their hard work.
Thank you Roar TV, parents, band, cheer, and Lionettes, student body, and Admin for showing our kids so much love! It’s a great day to be a Kaufman Lion, and hopefully tomorrow it’ll be an even better one. #STATEBOUND@XcKaufman@RoarTVLive@KaufmanISD 🦁https://t.co/TkiAvbTaoB
