JENNIFER SALAS
CONNECTING OUR COMMUNITY
Jennifer graduated from The University of Texas in 1992 with a degree in biology and married her husband Mike shortly after graduation. Beginning her professional career as a science teacher gave Jennifer a great appreciation for public education. After living in Dallas and Vancouver she returned to Austin in 2000 and moved to Eanes ISD when her oldest son was ready to start kindergarten in 2003. Jennifer has been active in EISD schools from day one volunteering for countless school activities, chairing events and serving on committees. She has been passionate about her work for The Eanes Education Foundation (EEF) volunteering first on the campus level and subsequently serving on the EEF board. Most recently, Jennifer led the 2014-2015 Teacher Fund Campaign which gave her the opportunity to work with others across the district. She successfully raised over one million dollars to fund teacher positions in Eanes ISD.
