A local English teacher is chosen for a national award. She will be recognized in Houston, Texas next month.

Rachel Watson is a sophomore English teacher with McKinleyville High School whose passion for teaching goes beyond her 16 years of experience.

Last year, the “California Association of Teachers of English” awarded Watson with a Classroom of Excellence Award, along with 11 other teachers throughout the state. From those 11 she was selected to receive a national award. She and 14 other teachers nationwide will receive this honor. She gives all the credit to her colleagues, who nominated her.
