Biography:
Hello COLT Community! My name is Racheal Edmonds and I have been a teacher for 30 years! I have taught grades K-3 and I am currently teaching First Grade here at Kohl. I love southern food, reading books, and spending time with friends and family. Teaching is the best job in the world because you get to help kids see what is possible and then help them achieve their goals and dreams.

Hello Colt Community!
This is my first year at Kohl and I am thrilled to be here! I am a BVSD graduate and Colorado native. I have been a teacher in BVSD for over ten years and love teaching second grade! I think being a teacher is the best job in the world because you get to be a part of the discovery of the future through the eyes and experiences of little ones. Helping students grow and develop into themselves is so fufilling and exciting everyday.
In my free time, I love spending time with my husband, Paul and family. I enjoy reading, listening to podcasts, cooking, and traveling.
