Texarkana Parent Magazine has promoted family life and the enjoyment of parenthood to Texarkana-area parents since 2011.
Like a lot of Texarkana kids, I moved away from Texarkana for college and assumed I’d never come back. Life had other ideas, and years later I landed back here in Texarkana, met my husband, and started a family. And then it dawned on me—I like it here. Love it, even.
The Texarkana area is a wonderful place to raise a family. We have wonderful school districts, ample higher education opportunities, beautiful parks and fun activities for kids, arts and culture, tons of nonprofits, a downtown that’s in the middle of a renaissance… There’s a lot going on, and it’s exciting to be part of it.
As I take the helm of Texarkana Parent Magazine in 2021, it’s my goal to help area parents learn and grow as parents while taking advantage of everything our community has to offer. If you have story ideas, suggestions for locals to feature, or other feedback, I encourage you to drop me a line at publisher@texarkanaparent.com or join the Texarkana-Area Parents Facebook Group. I look forward to connecting with you!
