Hello! My name is Rachel Tomasi and I am so excited for the 2026-2027 school year. 5th grade is the BEST and I love teaching it!
This is my ninth year of teaching, and my eighth year teaching 5th grade at Hiawatha. I graduated from WGU with my Bachelors in Elementary Education in 2018, my Masters in Curriculum & Instruction in 2023, and my Masters in Elementary Mathematics in 2025.
My husband, Reno, and I have been married for 26 years. We have 3 amazing kids, an incredible daughter-in-law, and 2 adorable grandkids. In addition to teaching, I love hanging out with my family and friends, reading, binge-watching TV, making cards, and playing board games. I especially LOVE being a grandma and spending time with my grandsons, Henry & Franklin!
