Upland Heights Elementary School

Meet the Teacher

My name is Jessica Felts-Sax. My family and I are new to Texas after my husband spent the past 5 years working in the area and we love it! I graduated from Metropolitan State University of Denver in 2015 with my BA in Behavioral Science and Elementary Education. 

I have spent the last 6 years teaching 4th grade, Kindergarten and Special Education in Colorado; this will be my first-year teaching Pre-K here at Upland Heights Elementary! This will be a fun and exciting year for all of us, and I am looking forward to getting to know all of you. 

I live with my husband John and our 4 kids, the two youngest are also new to Upland Heights! 

We have a small farm that includes: 6 dogs, 2 goats, an alpaca, a horse, and a bunch of chickens! 

When not teaching or farming I enjoy spending free time with my family; camping, hiking, fishing, hunting, and riding our off- road toys. 

Please know that if you ever need anything, or if you have ANY questions, I am here please send me a Remind or email!!
