Becca Pappas
Reading Specialist

     Hi, my name is Becca Pappas and I am the PASSPORT program’s reading teacher at Rose Union Elementary.  I was born and raised in the Oklahoma City metro area and consider Oklahoma a great place to live even when travels have taken me to Europe, the Caribbean, and all throughout the United States.  After completing Putnam City High School, I attended the University of Central Oklahoma where I graduated with honors  and earned a Bachelors of Science in Elementary Education and a Master of Education in Reading Specialty. In addition to my college training, I have educational training in programs such as Literacy First, Reading First, Great Expectations, and Schools Attuned.

     I have had the honor of working for Deer Creek Public Schools for the past six years teaching at both Deer Creek Elementary (5th grade) and Prairie Vale Elementary (2nd grade and as a reading specialist).  After school I enjoy reading, swimming, all types of dancing, watching movies and playing with my nieces and nephews and my doggie Winn-Dixie (named for the Kate DiCamillo book not the grocery store).

     I am looking forward to an exciting inaugural school year here at Rose Union Elementary School, and I am thrilled to be given the opportunity to work with all Rose Union students.  It is my goal not only teach basic reading skills, but to also develop in children a love of knowledge that will encourage them to be lifelong learners.
