Mrs. Kala Griffin

Computer technology has always been an interest of mine. I pursued a degree in Business Administration with a focus in Information Systems at UTSA. After graduating, I went into the business world to find that many graduating were not prepared for the workforce. This prompted my return to education in hopes of helping to prepare future generations for real-life jobs.

Since 2016, I have been the 7K technology teacher at Krueger Middle School- Krueger School of Applied Technologies which became the Space and Engineering Technologies Academy (SETA) in 2023. Preparing students for the real world by providing training in Adobe products which are industry-standard software. As a CyberPatriot sponsor, we are exploring and delving into technologies that didn't exist until recently. As technologies change, so will what we teach our students.

2008-2016- taught CTE Business and Technology courses at AC Jones High School in Beeville, TX, and in 2016 awarded Teacher of the Year.

2018 TX PTA Honorary Life Membership Award (This is one of the highest honors that may be presented to individuals by Texas PTA for outstanding service to youth and is given to recipients who have made a worthwhile contribution to the well-being of children.)

2019 -2024 Coach of multiple winning CyberPatriot teams of the Mayor's Cyber Cup.

2020 Awarded Trinity Prize for Excellence in Teaching
