I am a native of Dallas, Texas.
I earned an undergraduate B.A.
degree in English, with minors in
French and Education, from North
Texas State University, Denton,
Texas. Ten years later, I
received my Masters of Library
Science at NTSU . My career in
librarianship began at Dale B.
Davis Elementary School in
Carrollton, Texas, where I served
for 22 years. Eight years ago I
came to Frisco I.S.D. to
establish the new library at
Borchardt Elementary and am now
serving my 30th year as a
Librarian/Media Specialist. I
have a heart for encouraging my
students to become life-long
readers, knowing that a love of
reading will positively impact
every facet of their lives. Once
they become readers, then they
can more fully enjoy the process
of becoming life-long learners.

I have been married to my
husband, Fred, for 40 years. My
interests include reading,
carnival glass collecting, trying
new bed and breakfasts,
ministries at church, and
enjoying my two precious
granddaughters, now 7 and 5 years
old.

I am helped in the library
by my library assistant, Gertie
Goose, a puppet, who helps with
story time for grades
kindergarten, first, and second.

My name is Jackie Goralczyk. I
was raised in Garland, where I
attended Garland High School. I
received my Bachelor's Degree
from UT Dallas. My husband, Don,
and I moved to Plano in 1990. We
have three children in the Frisco
ISD. Kelsey is an 9th grader at
Liberty, Lindey is a 6th grader
at Fowler, and Colin is in the
3rd grade at Taylor. This is my
third year at Borchardt and I am
thrilled to be here. I now work
a full-time position and split my
time between Borchardt and
Taylor. I coach a Destination
Imagination team from Liberty and
help lead a Girl Scout troop from
Fowler. In my spare time, I love
to read, watch my kids play
sports, and shop.
