Mrs. Renetta A. Perkins
My name is Renetta A. Perkins, and I am a special education inclusion and resource teacher. I’ve been in education for 10 years, passionately supporting diverse learners and fostering inclusive environments.
I earned my bachelor’s degree from Southern University at New Orleans, a proud HBCU (Historically Black College and University), and later received my master’s degree from Lamar University.
Originally from New Orleans, LA, I’m a devoted New Orleans Saints fan—Who Dat!—and I also enjoy cheering on the Golden State Warriors and the Las Vegas Aces. I love watching these teams with my husband and our two furbabies, Chay and Chyii, who are always part of the fun.
