Klein Collins Salutatorian, Rachel Roth, is an accomplished scholar with aspirations of changing the world through medical biotechnology research and development.

During her time at Klein Collins, Rachel has shown herself to be a great leader as an active participant in several school organizations.

Rachel is the president of the Science National Honor Society, the Bringing Exceptional Students Together (BEST) Club, and KC Bakes, which she co-founded. She also holds the titles of treasurer of the Key Club and secretary of Student Council and is a member of Mu Alpha Theta.

“From the moment I met Rachel Roth, I knew there was something special about her. Bright, spirited, and personable, she meets every circumstance both within and outside of class with an eagerness to learn and engage,” AP Environmental Science teacher Elizabeth Broussard said. “It has been a joy to watch her collaborate with others in the classroom and our shared organizations, as she is a natural leader. Rachel has an infectious energy about her and an inspiring curiosity that motivates others to dive into concepts and tasks with fervor. I will always be grateful for our conversations as we worked to unpack difficult concepts in class. When I heard that Rachel was this year’s Salutatorian at Klein Collins, I was thrilled. I cannot think of anyone more hardworking or deserving than herself.”

In addition to her academics, Rachel is deeply involved with her community, dedicating her time to a number of extracurricular and volunteer activities.

Her passion for leadership extends beyond the classroom. Rachel is a leader for Great Adventure Camp, Girl Scouts Backpacking Orientation, and serves as a Confirmation and Youth Leader at her church. She also channels her leadership skills into mentoring younger students, working as an assistant coach for the CLE Crocs Swim Team, a volunteer swim instructor, and a mentor with the Team Love All Tennis Clinic. Additionally, she participates in the National Honor Society Elementary Mentorship Program.

“One of the most impactful parts of my time as a student in Klein ISD was the opportunity to discover my passions in engaging classroom environments,” Rachel said. “I was encouraged to explore my academic interests on a deeper level, especially in AP Research, where I developed a year-long project and strengthened my ability to communicate, think critically, and problem solve. This class allowed me to immerse myself in a topic I was passionate about while building invaluable skills I will carry into college and my future career. These experiences, along with supportive teachers and many course options to pursue my interests, made my years in Klein ISD very meaningful.”

It is no surprise that with all of her daily hard work, Rachel has a few accolades under her belt. She has earned the Girl Scouts Gold Award, and is a National Merit Scholarship recipient, Brown Foundation Scholar, and AP Capstone Diploma Recipient.

With so much accomplished at her age, she’s still not done excelling. Rachel will attend Texas A&M University to pursue a degree in Chemical Engineering. She plans to work in medical biotechnology research and development.

Congratulations, Rachel! Your hard work and dedication to your studies and your community are remarkable. Your Klein Family will always be here cheering you on!
