Presbyterian School

Tune in to hear Head of School, Dr. Mark Carleton, chat with Presbyterian School Think.Make.Talk (TMT) teacher and Museum District Liaison, Eby Harvey, in a new episode which is now live and available for download on our People of PS Podcast

Born and raised in Houston, Eby comes from a multi-generation, long line of Longhorns. Eby graduated from the University of Texas with a bachelor's degree in photojournalism and a minor in Spanish and art history. During college, Eby spent a year studying in Florence and Barcelona which ignited her love for living, learning, and traveling abroad. After graduation, Eby toured Australia and New Zealand and taught English in South Korea. She also served as a travel guide for Third Rock Travel for six years. Eby returned to Houston to get her M.Ed. in Curriculum and Instruction and began working at Presbyterian School in 2014. As an experiential learner, Eby is passionate about connecting students to authentic, firsthand experiences and resources that will help them learn by doing. Eby helped to develop the Think.Make.Talk. curriculum at the School and currently teaches Lower School students how to think deeply about problems, ideas, projects, and research; creatively make real-world applications that flow out of that thinking; and talk to members of our community about what they've made and how to make it even better. This year Eby expanded her role as TMT teacher to include serving as the School's Museum District Liaison. Eby and her partner, Matt, have two daughters, Birdie and Ouisie, who will join the PS Class of 2033 in the Fall.
