Welcome to Van Alstyne High School! It is truly my honor to serve as Principal and to work with
such a wonderful group of educators and students.
I received a Bachelor’s Degree from The University of Texas at Arlington and a Master’s Degree
from Lamar University. This will be my seventeenth year in public education. My husband, Ted,
and I are the proud parents of two sons and one daughter, who are all grown. We absolutely love
spending time with our children, in-law children and especially our four precious grandchildren.
At VAHS we guide our students to develop real-world skills that will empower their future and
we encourage them to take part in the rich traditions of being a Van Alstyne Panther. Whether
that is through Ag/FFA, athletics, culinary arts, fine arts, academics or athletics.
I look forward to getting to know all of our new students and their families as we work together
in the 2024-2025 school year. Please let me know if there is any way that I may assist you or
your student. My door is always open.
This is going to be a fantastic year!
Mrs. Krista Beal
Principal
VAHS – Dedicated to empowering EXCELLENCE every Panther, every day.
