This is my 2nd yr. @ TCS and my 30th yr. working in the field of early childhood, my passion. It's very rewarding to watch the little ones grow and meet developmental milestones.

Hello! My name is Rhonda Robbins, and I’m proud to be a native Texan. I serve as the Assistant Director here at Towne Creek and bring over 36 years of experience in Early Childhood Education. I’ve taught nearly every age group—except Toddlers and Afterschool. I joined the Towne Creek family in 1999, spending my first four years teaching Pre-K. All three of my daughters attended Towne Creek and absolutely LOVED their time here, making this school extra special to me. Today, I’m a proud grandmother of four and cherish every opportunity to spend time with my grandkids.

I have worked at Towne Creek since 2009. Prior to working at the school I had a 23 year career at the Houston Zoo. I started in the Children's Zoo as a zookeeper and worked my way up to supervisor then eventually Curator of the section. After 17 years, I transferred to the Education Department where I led the Education staff in Zoo programming both on and off site. After leaving the Zoo, I earned my alternative teaching certificate. I contacted Ms. Judy, and she hired me to teach the threes. I am sure I learned as much or more that year than my students! Three-year-olds are amazing! In 2010, I became the director of the school and have been in that position ever since. I love our school, our staff, our students and our families. When I'm not at work I spend time with my friends, my black lab "Rufus", and I travel to Kansas as often as possible to visit my two sons, their wives and my awesome grandsons!

I am transitioning into the role of Director, as I am absolutely IN LOVE with AND am a lifetime advocate for The Towne Creek School! My journey began here in the 1990s while studying Interdisciplinary Studies, emphasizing Early Childhood Education at U of H. My daily, real-world Towne Creek examples illustrating the model infant-to-preschool environment quickly launched me into the role of Student Board President! That was just the beginning… over the years, I have used my experiences with our daily design here at Towne Creek to develop language programs and shape the practices of educators across 3 districts. Every child in my family circle has attended here, and I am thrilled to return myself—continuing to walk alongside families as we grow the most darling children in all of Texas! I also feel blessed to keep our entire admin team intact, as Ms. Kathy transitions into a part-time consultant position for The Towne Creek School.
