Deshonta Everett, Principal 

Deshonta Everett has been selected as the new principal of Anderson Elementary School. With 12 years of experience in education, Everett previously served as an assistant principal at Welch Middle School for two years. Before joining HISD, he started his career as a middle school English teacher in Dallas ISD and served as an instructional coach, secondary ESL specialist and academic principal in the Crowley and Irving Independent School Districts. Everett holds a bachelor’s in English from Jackson State University, a master’s in Curriculum, Instruction, and Assessment from Walden University, another master’s in Educational Leadership and Policy Studies from the University of Texas at Arlington, and a doctorate in Educational Leadership from the University of North Texas.

In keeping with our mission, Anderson is a place where:

• Parents are active participants
• Teachers are lifelong learners
• Administrators are supportive change agents
• Community members are team players/partners
• Scholars are inquisitive sponges soaking up all the knowledge, nurturing, and love that we have to offer them

It is business as usual every day at Anderson – and we are in the business of educating students. I invite you to join us in “Educating Our Future Leaders Today.”
