My name is Tanner Thompson, and I will be a special education paraprofessional and head baseball coach, with additional coaching duties. I’m excited to join the Richard Panthers this year. I graduated from Wharton Junior College and am currently pursuing my bachelor's in Education.

I have been happily married to my wife, Katy Thompson, for 3 years. We have recently moved into a farmhouse in the Singleton area and hope to stay and build a family there.

I was a bullfighter for 15 years but am still very involved in the rodeo world. I have played baseball all of my life and played two years of college ball as well. I am passionate about mentoring athletes and am blessed to be coaching at such a great school district.

My name is Amanda Polan, and I am excited to be joining Richards ISD as a paraprofessional. I graduated from Sam Houston State University in 2011 with a degree in Animal Science.

My daughter, Brooke, will be starting second grade this year, and we love being part of the Richards community. For the past two years, I have had the opportunity to be part of the Richards family as a substitute, which has allowed me to get to know many of the wonderful students and staff.

I enjoy spending time outdoors, being with my family, and supporting children as they learn and grow. I love our small-town community and am grateful for the opportunity to continue serving Richards ISD in this new role. I look forward to a great school year!

Hi, Panther Family!

My name is Zoey Walker, and I am thrilled to join Richards ISD! This will be my third year teaching Agricultural Science, and I am excited for the opportunity to work with and learn alongside the students and community at Richards.

I graduated from Oak Ridge High School before continuing my education at Sam Houston State University, where I earned a Bachelor’s degree in Animal Science. Agriculture has always been a passion of mine, and I enjoy helping students discover the countless opportunities available within the industry through hands-on learning and leadership experiences.

I look forward to building relationships with my students, encouraging their growth, and sharing my enthusiasm for agriculture. I can’t wait to see all that this school year has in store for us. Go Panthers!
