My name is Troy Lock and I have been teaching middle school social studies in Plano ISD for 4 years now. Prior to teaching in PISD, I taught 2 years in the Houston area. Along with teaching, I am a Coach at Carpenter Middle School, where I coach Football and Track. I have been coaching youth sports for 8 years now, so helping developing and push our youth to achieve their maximum potential has always been a passion of mine. I am looking forward to making a generation of world changers in all sorts of positive ways through my contact with each student as a teacher and a coach.

Prior to teaching/coaching, I grew up playing all sports in Indiana. I played college soccer for 4 years and studies sports performance/sports science. After college, I moved to Texas where I met my wife and we have been married for almost 5 years now. We have 2 beautiful children and one that just arrived prior to the 2020-2021 school year.

My goal is to educate, encourage, and push our students (your children) to meet or exceed their limits. I am forever grateful to get to do that in PISD as a teacher/coach.
