Mr. Paul Monreal

Fifth Grade Teacher

Hello, I am Paul Michael Monreal a proud alumnus of North Side High School in FWISD! I have a deep connection to the community where I now serve as an educator. My college education started with an associate degree from Tarrant County College and earning a bachelor's degree from both Columbia College of Missouri and Northwood University.

Beyond the classroom, I cherish the time spent with my wife and our son. We enjoy activities like watching sports, discovering captivating movies, and sharing memorable moments at concerts.

For the past three years, I've been privileged to teach at FWISD, previously instructing 2nd and 5th graders. As a former student of FWISD myself, I understand the significance of a strong and supportive educational environment.

I am thrilled to be part of the faculty at Sam Rosen Elementary, where I can continue to contribute to the growth and development of the next generation.
