This is my 14th year in education, and I have taught or counseled a range of students – from Pre-Kindergarten all the way to upperclassmen at the University of Arkansas. I am very excited to be at West Fork High School!
I earned Ph.D from the University of Arkansas in 2017, and my area of passion/research is helping students to navigate barriers to success in rural and high-poverty settings.
I can be contacted Monday through Friday from 8:00 am – 3:00 pm at 479.839.3131 extension 4042 or by email at rhutchens@wftigers.org. I strongly prefer email communication!
