I strongly believe education opens doors.  An education encourages
 students to dream dreams, but also gives them the tools and skills 
 required to turn those dreams into reality.  My vision for Rice Elementary 
 is to provide a safe learning environment where our children can excel in 
 academics and to partner with our parents to see that the children of
 Rice ISD fulfill their potential.  I am so excited to have this opportunity 
 to be a part of the journey.  Rice Elementary is an incredible place to be 
 and this is going to be a great year.
