Hello Rangers!

Hello, my name is Beth Keysear and I am one of the ACCESS teachers. I worked as an educational interpreter for 9 years in public schools in Florida and in Illinois. I have two B.A. degrees, one in Elementary Education and one in Deaf Education from MacMurray College. I taught high school at the Illinois School for the Deaf for one year. My husband and I moved to Austin in July of 2016. We just bought a house in 2018, so we are planting our roots here in Austin. 2019-2020 will be my forth year working in the ACCESS department; I feel extremely fortunate to have a job that I love so much! This position has been so rewarding and provided me with so many opportunities for growth.
 
My husband and I have three adult children between us, one lives in Colorado, and the other two live in Illinois. Our children are 24, 24, and 21 years old! In our little family of 5, we have 3 teachers!  Whenever possible you will find me swimming, reading, or entertaining friends. I also love to cook, restore furniture, and shop!
 
I love being a Ranger!  Please contact me if I can provide additional support or if you have questions. We are a team and that team includes teachers, staff, students, parents, employers...
