School Opened: 1989

HOW WE GOT OUR NAME

Fiest was named in honor of Bernice Fiest, an educator who devoted 37 years of service to the young people of Texas and was certified by the state in seven areas of education. Before retiring in 1985, Mrs. Fiest worked as a teacher, coach, librarian, and principal. Mrs. Fiest was an exemplary role model for the students and frequently visited the school to read to kindergartners and attend special events.
