Mr. Andrew McBurney
Hello! I have been a school teacher for over twenty years, including six and a half years’ as an instructional specialist. I have been the Social Studies Dean at Roosevelt High School since August 2017.
I received my Bachelor of Arts from the University of Texas at Austin in 1994 and began teaching in 1996 at John Jay High School. I moved to Houston in 2003, and was an instructional specialist at Alief Hastings High School for five years, and then returned to the classroom there for another five and a half years. During that time I also taught American Government and Texas Government at Houston Community College at night. In January 2015, I became the Advanced Academic Specialist for the Region 4 Education Service Center in Houston, where I facilitated over sixty professional developments for gifted and talented education and advanced academics.
I moved back to San Antonio in August 2016 to begin teaching at Roosevelt. I am very grateful for the opportunity to be here. My return to San Antonio was a homecoming in more ways than one, because I am a product of NEISD schools.
“Far and away the best prize that life has to offer is the chance to work hard at work worth doing.”
