Hi, My name is Melinda Rauch and I am very excited to be joining the Wyatt family this year as your Assistant Principal.

This year marks my 17th year in education and my 1st year in Plano ISD. Previously I was an Assistant Principal Intern and I’ve also taught first, third, fourth, and fifth grades. I graduated from the University of Colorado in Boulder with a bachelor’s degree in Psychology and earned my masters degree in Educational Leadership from the University of North Texas.

My husband Tim and I live in Prosper and have been married for 35 years. We have a son Mike who graduated from Texas A&M University and is a veterinarian. His wife Amelia is also a veterinarian, and they are expecting their first child in November. We are very excited to become grandparents! Our daughter Ashley also graduated from Texas A&M University and works as a Supply Chain Operations manager for Pepsico. We also have a 5 year old Cavapoo named Sadie.

In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with family, traveling, reading and trying out new restaurants. I look forward to a great year and getting to know both the staff and students at Wyatt!
