Mrs. Ruth Ann Anderson

I am honored to serve as the principal of Bens Branch Elementary.  My goal, as an educational leader, is to cultivate an environment that promotes success for all students and meets the needs of the whole-child. I am committed to building positive relationships within our school and community, while ensuring that instruction is high-quality and student-centered. Every child deserves our best, every day!
 
I have been in education for 23 years, with most of my career being in New Caney ISD. Prior to my position as campus principal, I was an Assistant Principal, Reading Specialist, and a second grade teacher. I graduated from Houston Christian University with a Bachelor's degree in Interdisciplinary Studies and from Lamar University with a Masters in Teacher Leadership and a Masters in Administration. I am happily married to my high school sweetheart, Jake, who is also an educator. We live in Porter and have three amazing kids; Reed, Emma, and Nick.

I look forward to the upcoming school year and the opportunity to serve the BBE Family!

Go Bulldogs!

Mrs. Traci Towslee

I am so excited to be joining BBE this school year for my 14th year in education! Prior to administration, I served as an instructional coach, student success coach, media specialist, and math teacher. I began my career in tiny Woden, TX and also taught in Nacogdoches and College Station prior to landing in New Caney ISD. I have a Bachelor’s degree from Texas A&M University and a Master of Education from Stephen F. Austin State University. 
 
My husband and I have two beautiful children who will eventually attend BBE.  I want for all kids what I want for my own…access to the BEST education possible, and I wholeheartedly believe we have that at Bens Branch.  Please reach out to me if there's anything I can do to make your experience with BBE the absolute best. 
 
Go Bulldogs!
