Benjamin "Doc" Kerley Elementary School

The Kerley & Howard Norman Admin Teams are learning, growing, and leading together at the TEPSA Summer Conference! 💙🦛
Investing in leadership today to create even greater opportunities for our students, staff, and families tomorrow.

☀️🦛 Kerley Summer Math Challenge is ON! 🦛☀️
Who’s ready to keep those math brains strong all summer long? 💪🧠

Summer is the perfect time to keep learning fun! Whether your child is counting with 10-frames or tackling 3-digit addition and subtraction, just a few minutes of math practice each day can make a big difference.

💪 Build confidence and fluency for the year ahead

Remember, the goal isn't perfection—it's progress. Celebrate effort, encourage persistence, and make learning part of your summer fun!

📸 We'd love to see your Kerley Kids in action! Share a picture of them completing today's challenge in the comments.

Kerley Families and Staff,

It is with great excitement and pride that I share that Mrs. Erica Jordan has been named Acting Principal of Ray Elementary School, pending final approval by the Hutto ISD School Board.

While we will certainly miss having her at Kerley, we could not be more excited for this well deserved opportunity. Mrs. Jordan has been an outstanding leader, teammate, and advocate for students throughout her time at Kerley. Her commitment to building relationships, supporting staff, and improving outcomes for kids has left a lasting impact on our campus community.

One of the things that makes Kerley special is our commitment to growing leaders. Mrs. Jordan’s appointment is another example of the exceptional educators and leaders who have developed their craft while serving our students and families. We are proud to see her take this next step in her leadership journey.

Please join me in congratulating Mrs. Jordan and thanking her for the dedication, leadership, and care she has brought to Kerley Elementary. We know she will continue to do incredible things at Ray Elementary, and we look forward to celebrating her success.

Congratulations, Mrs. Jordan. We are proud of you and grateful for all you have done for Kerley.

On the day before the last day of school, Mrs. Rentas 5th grade students were completely engulfed in reading. The students were so engaged, you could hear a pin drop in the room. 🌟
