DeAnne Hatfield brings a keen financial background to the Northwest ISD Board of Trustees, having served in a leadership position in the district’s financial services department for several years. As a Northwest High School alumna, she also provides a strong background of the district’s history.

Mrs. Hatfield served as executive director of business services for the district, and she advanced through the business and operations ranks throughout her more than 30 years working for Northwest ISD.

“I care about the district, and I want to ensure it meets its mission and vision,” Mrs. Hatfield explained when asked why she chose to run for a position on the board. Following her retirement in 2018, Mrs. Hatfield ran for the board the following year to remain engaged in the direction of the district and won her place on the school board.

Mrs. Hatfield earned her bachelor’s degree in business administration and management from the University of North Texas. She and her husband, Byron, enjoy attending school events across the district in support of students and teachers.
