Mrs. Rawls has enjoyed working with boys and girls for 34 years. She believes students should be challenged to help them reach their greatest potential. By providing her students with a curriculum that is just beyond their reach, she encourages and motivates them to stretch their thinking and rise above their own expectations. She hopes they will find this year in PAT to be fun, challenging, and rewarding.
She began teaching in Klein ISD near Houston where she taught Kindergarten, 1st and 3rd grade for 11 years. She has taught 1st, 2nd and 4th grade in GCISD for 15 years and has had the privilege of teaching the PAT program at Glenhope Elementary for the past 9 years.
Mrs. Rawls graduated from Texas Tech University with a Kindergarten endorsement and a Bachelor of Science degree in elementary education. She earned her certification in gifted education from Hardin-Simmons University.
She is extremely proud of being recognized as a campus Teacher of the Year. Mrs. Rawls has served on various committees and presented Gifted Awareness staff development for teachers in the district.
Mrs. Rawls is married to a science teacher. She enjoys reading, scuba diving, playing golf, and traveling. She loves being near the ocean and collects speciman seashells.
She loves animals and supports the Morris Animal Foundation which is actively involved in animal research.
