Emily Cheekoti

Speech Therapist

Hello! My name is Emily Cheekoti, and I am the speech-language pathologist for the MH Moore Elementary campus. The 2025-2026 school year will mark my 5^th year both working for FWISD and working in MH Moore Elementary. I was born and raised in Little Rock, Arkansas, and I received both my bachelor's and master's degrees in speech-language pathology from Texas Christian University in Fort Worth. I am also a part of the district's assistive technology team. As a speech-language pathologist, I evaluate speech-language difficulties and provide speech-language therapy services in areas such as articulation, language, stuttering, and social skills to those who qualify. In addition, I provide campus team members with recommendations for supporting communication in all of its forms. When I am not working, I enjoy cooking, learning Spanish and Telugu, watching movies, and attending local community theatre in the DFW metroplex. I am grateful to be a part of the wonderful and inspiring campus team at MH Moore; go Mustangs!

I earned my special education license the following year and worked in various positions, (SPED Inclusion, Behavior Intervention, Social Emotional Academic Success, Resource, Self-contained Unit, Math Generalist, etc.) over the next 17 years in five states. I have earned a Bachelor of Arts in Business Administration from Saint Leo University in Saint Leo, FL and Master of Education in Special Education and Master of Arts in Business Leadership from Liberty University as well as an Educational Specialist and Doctor of Education in Education Leadership from Liberty University in Lynchburg, VA.

I am married and have one daughter, Bria, and a handsome grandson. My wife, LaConti, is a former teacher, who now uses her expertise to train federal employees to be awesome. Outside of work, I love to travel (I do a lot of staycations), reading, all things involving word games/searches (boggle/scrabble) and my favorite pastime is bowling. I am always ready to roll! Looking forward to an amazing “Mustang” year!
