Meet Rebecca

Rebecca has lived and served in Katy for over 25 years. Previous to moving to Katy, Fox and her husband lived in six countries with his job in the oil and gas industry. Once they moved to Katy, they realized the exceptional quality of the schools and chose to make this their home. They have two children who are Katy ISD graduates. Life overseas broadened Rebecca’s perspective and taught her that all parents, no matter where they live or what language they speak, want better lives for their children and education is the key.

One of Rebecca’s greatest joys is seeing children learn. She delights in seeing them grasp new concepts, make connections, and experience success. This fuels her service as a devoted volunteer.

served in leadership on PTA boards at Hayes Elementary, Creech Elementary, Beck Jr. High, and Cinco Ranch High School where she was named Volunteer of the Year
served on Katy ISD committees including the Campus Advisory Team, Bond Committees, Rezoning Committees, and three years as an executive board member of Volunteers in Public Schools (VIPS)
continues involvement in schools across the district through KEYS Mentoring, Junior Achievement, Promise-to-Read, Katy ISD Education Foundation and a variety of other programs
