🍎 Learning to teach by learning from the best!
Our FHS Little Mustang Preschool teachers in the Ready, Set, Teach CTE program spent a professional learning day gaining firsthand training from Friendswood ISD teachers and leaders as they prepare to welcome our newest Little Mustangs!
This is what investing in our students looks like. Through this CTE pathway, students aren’t just learning about careers in education, they’re stepping into them. They are building confidence, developing real-world skills and gaining firsthand experience that will prepare them well beyond high school.
We can’t wait to see these future educators put their learning into action! 💙🐴

🎙️ STATE OF THE DISTRICT 2026 💙🐴
Today, Friendswood ISD was proud to partner with the Friendswood Chamber of Commerce for our annual State of the District, bringing together community and business leaders to hear about the people, programs, and priorities shaping our District.
Superintendent Thad Roher shared the story behind Friendswood 14 and what it represents for our schools, our community, and the 14 square miles we proudly serve.
Guests also heard from Deputy Superintendent Lauren Ambeau, Assistant Superintendent Ryan Kopp, Chief Financial Officer Amber Petree, and Athletic Coordinator/Head Football Coach Jordan Johnson, who shared updates and insight into the work happening across Friendswood ISD.
But the main highlight was our Friendswood High School CTE students, who spoke passionately about their pathways, experiences, and the opportunities preparing them for what comes next. Their stories were a powerful reminder of why we do what we do!
Thank you to the Friendswood Chamber of Commerce for your continued partnership and to our community and business members who joined us today.
There is a lot to be proud of in our 14 square miles, and even more to look forward to! 💙
