About Me:

Hello, my name is Brooke Mendez and I am one of the counselors at RES this school year! A little about me starts with earning a Bachelor’s Degree of Arts in Sociology/Anthropology with a Minor in Human Services in 2009.  I then completed my Master’s in Education, School Counseling in 2011. Finally, I completed a Principal Endorsement (K-12) in May of 2019. 

I started my journey as a counselor at Rawlins Middle School, worked at Rawlins High School and now I am here at Rawlins Elementary School. I am also the Rawlins High School Girl's Soccer Coach!

I am really excited about this opportunity to work with your children every day.  If you ever have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to me.

About me:

Hello, I am Kristen Hite, and I am one of the new school counselors at Rawlins Elementary School. I work at the 2/5 campus and am currently working with mostly 2nd and 3rd graders. I spent most of my youth here in Rawlins but moved after 5th grade. From here I moved to Riverton and finally Casper, where I spent the majority of the last 20 years. I have a bachelor’s degree in Psychology and just recently completed my master’s degree in Counseling with a focus in school counseling. I am glad to be back in Rawlins and look forward to working with your children. If you have questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me by phone or email.
