Hello! 

My name is Marie Samarron. I was born and raised in Friona, Texas and graduataed from Friona High School in 1992. I attended Clovis Community College and Eastern New Mexico University in Portales and received a Bachelor of Science degree in Special Education and Elementary Education.

I am married to Friona native, Jose Samarron, who works for the City of Friona. Jose and I are empty nesters with four grown children: Matthew, Angel, Josephine, and Juan. We are also the proud in-laws of Adrianna, Albert, and Jenifer. We are blessed to be called Pops and Nana thanks to our 5 beautiful and spunky grandchildren: Asher, Baby Juan, Kallie, Magnolia, and Jaylon. Life is pretty spectacular!!!

This is my 16^th year as a teacher, and I couldn’t have asked God for a better job. He has truly given me my heart’s desire, and it is my students who have made me the teacher I am today. They impact and teach me in ways they will never know, and I will always be grateful for them.
