Leadership - Ellisor Elementary

Principal

It is my pleasure to serve Ellisor Elementary as the Principal. I have been in education for 22 years, serving as a classroom teacher in various grades, a Reading and Language Arts Instructional Coach, and an Assistant Principal. My family and I love being a part of the Magnolia community; both of my children attended their elementary years at Ellisor! I am dedicated to ensuring a safe, inclusive, and supportive school environment for all of our Bulldogs. I look forward to building relationships and partnering with staff, parents, and stakeholders.

Assistant Principals

Katie Burnham, Assistant Principal

Hello! I’m truly excited to be joining our Ellisor family this year. I’m a proud graduate of Sam Houston State University and also hold a Master’s degree from Lamar University. Since 2017, I’ve had the privilege of serving the Magnolia community with a strong passion for teaching Science. I believe in creating a positive and supportive classroom environment where all students feel safe and are empowered to reach their fullest potential. I’m looking forward to a wonderful year together!

Courtney Mull, Assistant Principal

I received my undergraduate degree in Political Science from the University of North Carolina at Wilmington and, later, earned my Master’s degree in Curriculum & Instruction from Concordia University- Portland. After gaining experience teaching general education, life skills, and specialized behavior support, I continued my educational journey and completed my Principal Certification at Lamar University. My family moved to Magnolia in 2021. My husband and I enjoy spending time in the community with our two children, Remington and Anna. If you ever run into us at any of the sports fields, please say hi!

I'm looking forward to working with your family this year.

Kimberly Riley, Counselor

I am so blessed to be the counselor at Ellisor Elementary. Before receiving my Master's Degree in Education from Sam Houston State University, I had experience as a classroom teacher for 4 years within the Magnolia Independent School District. As a Magnolia Alum, I have lived in Magnolia since junior high. I eventually married my high school sweetheart, Rip, who was born and raised in Magnolia. We now have an 11th-grade son, Bryton, who attends Magnolia High School. We currently live here in Magnolia and love being a part of such an awesome community.
