Hello! I am Zach Summers, and I was born and raised in Southern California. My wife and I moved to Texas 13 years ago, and I have worked in various capacities in special education for the last 13 years. This will be my third year in Plano ISD, and I am excited to be at West!

I have been married to my wife Lauren (who also works in education) for nine years, and we have been together since high school. We have two amazing children, our daughter Neyland, who is nine, and our son Decker, who is eight. We also have four rescue dogs running around the house helping Neyland and Decker wreak havoc!

I am a huge football fan and my weekends in the fall usually consist of watching high school football on Friday, college football on Saturday, and the NFL on Sunday. I am an extremely passionate Tennessee Volunteer fan! Go Vols!!! 

When I am not running around with my kids, my dogs, or watching football, I enjoy cooking and trying new food. Sunday night dinners at my grandma’s house are still some of my favorite memories!
