She graduated from Texas Christian University in 1956 with a BBA in Journalism, then later in life she discovered her love of teaching and returned to school to earn a BBS in Elementary Education in 1976. There began one of the greatest loves of her life, teaching children. Nanette taught school in Morton, Texas from 1976-1979, then she began her career with Cisco Elementary until her retirement in 2004. She saw many children pass through her classroom door and she loved each and every one of them dearly.
