Deborah Essary

Now in her seventh year of Catholic education, we're thrilled to have Mrs. Debbie Essary return for the 2024-2025 school year! Mrs. Essary is a longtime North Texan, having resided in Plano since before POP was founded. Mrs. Essary received her B.A. in Early Childhood Education from the University of North Texas yet is a Texas Tech Red Raider at heart! 

Mrs. Essary first joined the POP family in 1995 as a founding director and teacher in the CLC, a capacity in which she served through 1998. After several years teaching second and third grade in the public school system, Mrs. Essary rejoined POP as a second grade teacher in 2022.

In her free time, Mrs. Essary enjoys spending time with her three adult children and their families, including her two grandchildren.
