“Everyone can benefit from learning and practicing etiquette. It speaks for itself. A well-groomed individual is admired and distinctly stands out , just like a peacock, which commands respect and honor. They walk with sure footing and are the epitome of beauty, grace, and confidence. There is no comparison. "
The Texas Premier School of Etiquette Story
What the world views as socially and verbally acceptable has changed. Seeing this shift, The Texas Premier School of Etiquette was created to transform today's society, through one act, one gesture, and
one impression at a time.
By engaging in social and dining etiquette programs, individuals learn the proper skills needed to feel at ease in any environment. By increasing their self-respect and confidence, youth and young adults alike are less likely to seek acceptance from peers in a negative way. With good etiquette and knowledge of protocol, they can have successful personal and future business relationships based on higher standards and integrity.
Our founder, Stacie Blackburn, is a Certified Etiquette Consultant from the prestigious American School of Protocol in Atlanta, Georgia. She lives in a suburb of Houston, Texas with her husband of 21 years and their two sons. Stacie holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Interdisciplinary Studies and Early Childhood Education and has a background in banking and finance, corporate training, marketing, and pharmaceutical sales.
Through her experience in the classroom, business world, social engagements, and as a stay at home mother, she has developed a keen sense for style, etiquette, social graces, and community involvement. She finds joy in fashion, home décor, travel and developing personal relationships through encouraging words, hospitality and random acts of kindness. Her true sense of self is based on her foundation in her faith.
She started The Texas Premier School of Etiquette primarily to work with children of all ages, instructing social, dining, and netiquette courses. She also provides individual consulting focusing on poise and appearance, college/job preparation, and interpersonal skills. Her future goal is to provide Women's retreats beginning with the Royal Treatment Experience.
All of these efforts epitomize her true mission - helping others discover who they were created to be and giving them the confidence to share it.
"Fine-tuning interpersonal skills is one of the best investments you can make! Not only do they help you become the best version of yourself, but they also positively impact others. They are what will take you far in life!” - Stacie Blackburn
