Welcome to Palmer Middle School, Riley Barton!

Hi my name is Riley Barton! I’m so excited to be joining the Palmer Middle School family! I’m currently attending Navarro College to become a teacher, and I love working with and supporting students as they learn and grow. Outside of school, I’m recently engaged and enjoying this exciting new chapter of my life. I can’t wait to meet everyone and be a part of such a wonderful school community!

District and campus admin had the honor of attending the Region 10 Teacher of the Year luncheon to celebrate Mrs. Carvalho and Mrs. Zhanel! Both of these educators work tirelessly to build relationships with students and provide engaging lessons. Mrs. Zhanel is a 6th grade reading teacher and mentor teacher who excels in cultivating relationships with students and peers. We are honored to have her at the middle school!

14 days until school starts, Bulldogs!

The 2026-2027 Palmer ISD school calendar is available here or on the district website so you can mark your calendars for school holidays!

We are looking forward to a fantastic year! #PalmerProud

Welcome to Palmer Middle School, Jasmine Bailey!

Hi! My name is Jasmine Bailey. I earned my bachelor's degree from Henderson State University in May 2024 and my master's degree from Abilene Christian University in December 2025.

I've always had a passion for sports and played basketball from the time I could walk until I graduated from college. Although this is my first year as a teacher and coach, I couldn't be more blessed to begin my career at Palmer. I feel incredibly blessed to call Palmer home, and I look forward to building relationships with my students, athletes, and the community!

Welcome to Palmer Middle School, Karie & Brent Lewis!

We are excited to be joining the Palmer ISD family. We are Brent and Karie Lewis. Brent will be starting year 16 in education and he will be teaching 7th grade Texas History and coaching football, MS basketball and baseball. Karie will be starting year 12 of teaching and she will be teaching 8th grade College and Career and coaching MS volleyball and basketball. We both graduated from Tarleton State University.

We are blessed to have 2 wonderful kids: Kaystn, who will be in 7th grade at Palmer Middle and has a love for volleyball and softball and Brylie, who will be in 3rd grade at Palmer Elementary and loves to dance and play volleyball and softball. We also have 2 frenchies named Pearl and Olive.

Outside of school we love to hang out with our family, watch both kids in their sports, fish in our spare time, and Brent loves to hunt while Karie reads a good book or binge watches a new show!

We are excited to join the Palmer community and look forward to a great school year!
