Welcome!
My name is Rachel Jordan, and I teach 8th Grade English Language Arts here at Hal Peterson Middle School. As a a Hill Country native, I love teaching in a place that is so near and dear to my heart. I have two little boys, both in the KISD educational system, and I feel confident we are here to stay. I earned my undergraduate degree from Sam Houston State University in 2015, and my Master's in Educational Leadership from Schreiner University in 2021. I am a firm believer that students will rise to the expectations set, but I always lead with grace and understanding. My classroom operates with an open door policy, and parental involvement is always a priority. I am so excited for the 2023-2024 school year, and I cannot wait to meet you!
