Karla Clayton

Hello Bobcat families! I am excited to be back home! RES was my home for thirteen years before I pursued administration, and I am truly honored to serve our students and families in this role. This will be my 21st year in education, all spent at the elementary level.

My husband and I have three wonderful children. All three have been RES Bobcats!

I look forward to a fantastic year!

I am completing my 13th year in education, with the last ten years spent right here at Rincon Elementary School. I am passionate about serving and providing support to the students, families, and teachers of RES—a place I love dearly and call home.

I live on a farm with my husband, Hunter, and our daughter, Iva Wren, who attends the amazing STARS program here at RES. I enjoy soaking up moments with family and friends, visiting the beach, and serving at church.
