Final New Teacher Spotlight Features Three at Round Top-Carmine ISD

The Fayette County Record

Our final teacher spotlight is Breanna Leonhardt, a second and third grade Math and Science teacher at Round Top-Carmine Elementary.

Leonhardt was once a student attending the very same school that she is now teaching at. Before returning to Round Top, she attended Blinn College and Texas A&M to earn her degree, and soon began her teaching career. Though she has taught at other schools in the county and state, Leonhardt is

“When I was in school, I played sports and we would always say ‘Once a Cubette, always a Cubette’ and so coming back, for some reason that still sticks in my head. Now that I’m back, it brings back memories so I feel like I’m picking back up where I left off!” said Leonhardt.

Growing up, Leonhardt knew that if she were to become a teacher, she would want to teach math. Math was always her favorite subject because it was something that she excelled in, and her math teachers had inspired and motivated her throughout her primary and secondary school years. Now that she’s back at Round Top-Carmine, Leonhardt hopes to be that inspiration for kids just like she was.

“I’m looking forward to getting to know all the kids and parents again, whether I know them outside of school or not. I just hope to do whatever I can to make sure the kids are as successful as possible.”

Alongside the family atmosphere that Round Top-Carmine ISD has, Leonhardt has a family of her own. Her daughter is attending RT-C ISD this year, and outside of school, the family enjoys spending time with her husband and daughter, whether they are shopping or going on a hike.
