Welcome, Katie Herring, to Smothermon Elementary!
Hi! I’m Katie Herring, and I’m so excited to be joining Smothermon Elementary as the Special Education Resource Teacher and Team Lead. I’m thrilled to be back in Prosper ISD, where I began my Texas teaching career after moving from New York in 2021.
I started teaching in 2014 with the New York City Department of Education and have taught both general education and special education. Throughout my career, I’ve also had the opportunity to serve as a Special Education Coordinator and Campus Director, experiences that have strengthened my passion for supporting students, teachers, and families.
Outside of school, I’m a proud mom of three, and I love spending time with my family, tackling DIY home projects, and anything Disney.
I’m so grateful to be back in Prosper and can’t wait to get to know the Smothermon community. Here’s to a great school year!

Welcome, Holly Bunn, to Smothermon Elementary!
Hi! I am Holly Bunn, and I am excited to join Smothermon Elementary as a Dyslexia Therapist. I have had the privilege of serving students in education for 28 years and have been blessed to serve in Prosper ISD for the past three years. I am excited to continue that journey as I move to Smothermon Elementary. I am passionate about helping students with dyslexia strengthen their reading, spelling, and writing skills while building confidence and a love of learning.
Outside of school, I enjoy spending time with my family, especially our two precious grandchildren, who are proud Smothermon students. I feel especially blessed to be joining a school community that is also part of my own family’s journey.
