Angie Carraway is a public-school teacher, a parent, and a longtime member of the Collin County community. She knows that the decisions made at the Capitol don’t stay in Austin—they show up in classrooms, neighborhoods, and family budgets.

A fifth generation Texan with 14 years in the classroom, Angie has spent years working directly with students and families, seeing firsthand what happens when schools are underfunded and educators are asked to do more with less. She understands how policy choices affect class sizes, safety, and the resources available to help kids succeed. That experience shapes her belief that public schools deserve protection, respect, and real investment.

Angie’s commitment to service was shaped early on by a military family upbringing and a career that has always centered on people and community. Before teaching, she worked in hospitality, where she learned the value of working under pressure, listening, and doing the work well. Those same values guide her approach to public service today.

She holds a degree in sociology with a minor in history and a master’s degree in Curriculum and Instruction. 

Angie is running because Texas families deserve leaders who focus on real issues—strong public schools, affordability, and transparent government—and who understand that politics works best when it stays local.
