Wayne Voto Instructional Specialist & SPED/504 CoordinatorHello all! My name is Wayne Voto and I am the Instructional Specialist here at Premier HS - Pflugerville and I joined the campus in September 2025. I am originally from Flint, MI moving down here to Texas with my wife, Amanda, back in December 2014. I graduated from the University of Michigan way back in 1999 with a Bachelors in Education starting teaching right away for Flint Community Schools during the ‘99-’00 school year. Then I did jobs that involved a lot of customer service in call centers. After moving to the Lone Star State I decided to get back into teaching, first by subbing, then renewing my teaching certification, and finally teaching with different districts around Austin. When I am not teaching I love sitting in my chair reading science fiction & comic books, cheering for the University of Michigan (Go Blue!), the Detroit Tigers, and the Detroit Lions.
