Administration
Principal
Christy Bragg, M.Ed.
I was raised here in Waxahachie as a “teacher's kid”, as both my parents were WISD educators as well, so I am very excited to be representing WISD as an administrator at Simpson Elementary. I graduated from Waxahachie ISD in 2010. After high school graduation, I went to Tarleton State University, where I received my Bachelor’s Degree in EC-6 in 2014. I lived in Stephenville for 8 years before making my way back to Waxahachie. I began my teaching career at Millsap ISD, teaching Kindergarten and later, third grade. When I first moved back to Waxahachie, I taught 3rd Grade in Red Oak ISD. I then made the move to teach 1st grade at Wedgeworth Elementary. During this time, I went back to Tarleton State and received my Master's in Educational Administration in 2020.
I have a passion for building relationships with my staff and all students so they feel supported, loved, and safe. I strive to make elementary school fun for students and a place they can't wait to be each day. I have identical twin girls who are 4 years old and attend Little Chiefs Preschool. They keep me busy, and I can’t wait for them to become part of the Simpson Family!
