For the month of November, Tasha Wilson, of Ingleside High School was recognized during our School Board Meeting, where she was celebrated for her outstanding efforts. She was also awarded $100 from the Ingleside ISD Education Foundation
Below is an excerpt from the nomination that was submitted on her behalf.
"When my daughter learned Coach Wilson might be coming to Ingleside for her senior year, she was genuinely excited. That excitement alone spoke volumes about the kind of coach she is.
Coach Wilson is strong, structured, and holds her athletes to high expectations. But what makes her special isn't simply what she expects from her players. It's the respect she earns, the relationships she builds, and the way she makes young women want to rise to those expectations.
She’s the kind of coach who pushes you, challenges you, and sometimes makes you work harder than you thought possible, but who also makes you want to step onto that court and show her what you've learned. Those are the coaches you remember long after your playing days are over.
I've also had the opportunity to see how Coach Wilson brings players and families together. It reflects a team culture where people feel connected, valued, and part of something bigger than themselves.
As my daughter's senior volleyball season comes to an end, I find myself reflecting on how fortunate she has been to have Coach Wilson as part of her journey, not once, but twice. And while Coach Wilson's impressive coaching accomplishments deserve recognition, I believe her greatest legacy will always be the young women whose lives she's helped shape.
The Family Matters Award is about recognizing employees who go above and beyond, and I cannot think of a better example of someone who understands that being part of a school family means so much more than simply showing up and doing your job.
Coach Wilson doesn't just build volleyball teams. She builds confidence, character, relationships, and a sense of belonging. And those are things her players will carry with them long after the final whistle.”
We encourage you that if you witness an employee who goes above and beyond and demonstrates actions or qualities that are worthy of celebrating, to tell their story and help us recognize them! The nomination form is located on the district website at www.inglesideisd.org ,under the 'About Us' section of the Menu.
Congratulations, Coach Wilson! We're so happy you're a part of the Family at IISD.
