Rhonda Craven

Rhonda was born and raised in Dallas, an extremely diverse community where you can find something for everyone — from great restaurants and shopping to art and entertainment. Rhonda and her husband are the proud parents of a college-aged son. Rhonda is passionate about waste reduction, especially because Dallas residents use a lot of single use plastics and could recycle more.

As a mathematics teacher, she is proud to be a positive influence in the lives of her students. It meant the world to her when she recently got a message from a past student, who shared she helped him build the confidence to pursue his path having recently gotten accepted into a nuclear engineering doctoral program. As a Scholar she is, “so excited to get to experience this with my student, Victoria, and know we will be able to use the things we learn as Scholars throughout our lives and careers.”
