Celebrating Women's History!


Teen Services celebrates Women's History Month with this month's interview! Special guest Principal Melvlyn "Sissy" Lowe talks about what inspired her to become an educator. She reflects upon her pioneering career in North Texas with humor and honesty. She shares tips for women just starting out in the workplace, as well as reflections on some of the historical challenges for working women. She is interviewed by Baille, an 18-year old in DeSoto, Texas.
