This week’s Shout Out goes to Rita Robinson, a counselor at Coop Elementary School, from A. Nell Williams in HISD’s Office of Special Education.

“Ms. Robinson has been at Coop for over 25 years—her entire HISD career,” said Williams. “She works tirelessly for students, always going the extra mile. She even established a program where needy children who may not have anything to eat over the weekend can pick up a backpack of food every Friday before going home. She has a wonderful attitude and a ‘can-do’ spirit.” 

Other Shout Outs go out this week to:

  • Carla Barnes, Robin Bissell, Kelly Cline, Lola Cooper, Tabitha Davis, Rosa DeAnda, Michael Grahmann, Allison Groce, Joe Gutierrez, Lisa Harris, Nicole Holdman, Deitra Kendrick, Ellecia Knolle, Rhonda LeDuff, Mario Martinez, Jacqueline McWilliams, Ricky Oliphant, Lindsey Olsen, Miguel Orozco, Jo Reed, Augustina Reyes, Shontel Roberts, Shannon Smith, Barbara Valentine, Lillian Villareal, Andrea Williams, and Kenneth Williams, for their service on the 2013 District Advisory Committee. “They provide important consultation on a variety of issues related to district improvement and instructional programs,” said Director of School Support Services Mark White.
