Clayton Public Schools welcomes Rachel Estep as our K-4th Music Teacher as well as paraprofessional and teacher’s assistant. “Mrs. Estep’s passion for music began early, performing in The Witness, Arkansas’ Musical Passion Play in Hot Springs. With nearly 25 years of experience in musical theater, she has developed a deep love for music and is dedicated to sharing that passion with others. Currently a student at Tulsa Community College, Mrs. Estep is pursuing a degree in Early Childhood Education. She hopes to combine her love for music and her education to inspire and bring joy to students, helping them discover the fun and transformative power of music.” Our district is blessed to have Rachel instill a great love of music in all of her students and we are proud to have her on our staff.
