Cortney Baugh joined the Rapoport Academy Secondary team as a Teaching Assistant & English III/IV Teacher. Ms. Baugh has worked with 1st through 3rd graders in her 7 years as an educator in the community she grew up in. She is currently attending Grand Canyon University to pursue her Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education with a specification in reading. She has collaborated with teachers in whole-group instruction, small-group, and intervention roles. Meeting students where they are is something she loves to do. She also prioritizes helping students to build character, learn important values, and how to socialize in positive, meaningful, and productive ways. In her off time, you can find Ms. Baugh at any of the Waco libraries, sitting at home enjoying a PC game or two, cooking meals for her family, or cruising around at the lake on their family boat. Ms. Baugh has two students enrolled in Rapoport Academy, Nykolas, an 8th grader, and Emma, a 3rd grader. She is engaged to her partner of 11 years and has two very spoiled dogs.

Grace Millican joined the Rapoport Academy Secondary team as a 6th Grade English Language Arts Teacher. Ms. Millican is a recent graduate of Texas Tech University at Waco’s TechTeach program. She achieved a Bachelor of Science in Education with the highest Latin Honors. She spent her year-long internship working with 6th and 7th graders in English Language Arts at Lorena Middle School where she found her passion in working with 6th graders and cultivating a love for learning. She lets her students call her Ms. M and loves attending their games and events. Growing up, Ms. M had a lot of teachers she couldn’t connect with. She always knew she wanted to be a teacher like the ones she could connect with. That inspired her philosophy for education: connect with the students, find what they are interested in, and develop meaningful relationships with them. In her personal life, Ms. M has 3 older siblings, a niece, two nephews, and parents she likes to play board games with. She has a cat named Loki and a bearded dragon named Willow. She loves to read, write, and draw. She enjoys nothing more than a nice cup of coffee or tea, a blanket on her lap, a TV show on in the background, and a craft in front of her.
