5th grade ELA & Social Studies

I have been in education for over 6 years and counting. I started my career at a preschool level, and found myself loving the upper elementary age group. I grew up in Southern California where I graduated from CSU San Marcos and continued my education at La Sierra University earning my teaching credential as well as my masters in education. My educational philosophy is that children need a secure environment to promote their creativity to allow them to reach their full potential. I love spending my days with 5th graders. They are so bright, funny, and interested in topics beyond the classroom. Outside of the classroom I love hiking, reading, cooking new foods, and spending time with my cats!

kwalls@srcs.k12.ca.us

I've been teaching math and science at SRACS since 2008. I taught math and programming to 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders in Evanston, Illinois while a student at Northwestern University. In the years between, I worked in the educational technology industry as a designer and producer and got a master's degree focused on math education from Sonoma State University. I love teaching math, computational thinking, and science and learn something new every day from my students. My hobbies are trail hiking, crewing ultra-marathons, photography/video, camping, sailing, gardening, and playing the flute.

It is with so much pride and anticipation that I start the 2021-22 school year as the sixth grade humanities teacher! I have spent the last 25+ years as a 7th and 8th grade English teacher at RVMS, and I feel like I have so much to offer our sixth graders as they prepare for the big leap into middle school. In my years at Rincon, I have always been so impressed with the abilities of the SRACS students who came through my classes. I now know why: SRACS is a very special place for students to grow as creative and critical thinkers. Over the last four years, I have taught part time at RVMS and part time at SRACS, and  I have learned so much from the other SRACS teachers (especially Anna Williams, founding teacher of SRACS) about how to nurture the traits that make SRACS students so successful as they proceed through their academic careers. I have so many interests: spending time outdoors camping or hiking, listening to all kinds of music, hanging out with friends, traveling to new places, getting lost in a great novel, and most of all, spending time with my family and pets. I love all animals, and I have very strong convictions about the healing power of pets, especially dogs. I am always game for a good pet story!

Band

rhopkins@srcs.k12.ca.us

Mrs. Boulais’ musical career started in 5th grade when she dreamed of becoming a music teacher. She is currently “living the dream” as the band and orchestra director at SRACS & RVMS. Previous to her time at Rincon Valley Middle School, Mrs. Boulais taught at Kenilworth Junior High School in Petaluma California, and Kennedy Middle School in Redwood City, California. She has successfully grown each of these music programs to engage musicians of all ability levels. Mrs. Boulais earned her bachelor's degree and teaching credential in Music Education from Sonoma State University. As an experienced local teacher, the Sonoma State School of Education has sent multiple student teachers to train under her direction. She has been an integral part in mentoring these young music educators and helping them transition into running their own music programs. When Mrs. Boulais isn’t teaching, she enjoys hiking, camping, and cooking with her husband Jacob.

I am excited to be back and teaching band at SRACS again this year!  This will be my 7th year teaching for SRACS and 8th at my primary position at Maria Carrillo High School.  I studied Music Education in my undergraduate degree program at Sonoma State University and graduated with honors in 2012.  After teaching for a few years, I pursued and obtained a Master's Degree from Michigan State University in 2018. I am a professional reed player, focusing primarily on the clarinet and saxophone, and an avid performer within the community!  I have played in just about any type of group you can imagine; from a rock band to a jazz band, I have played in musicals as well as in professional orchestras all over California!  I am excited to get this amazing generation of students rolling in their music education.
