Teacher of the Month - Sept. 2026

In cooperation with the Mayor's office and City Council, the Rotary Club of Okla. City recognizes an outstanding teacher in our community.
Quinette  Bulls was an Oklahoma City Public Schools (OKCPS) District Teacher of the Year Finalist in 2026, and currently serves Pre-K through fourth grade students as an OKCPS Extended Educational Services Elementary Education Teacher.  
Quinette meets students where they are at, using trauma-informed, relationship-based learning to build confidence and improve academics.  She teaches with innovation, connecting lessons with real-world experiences to create a dynamic and interactive learning environment.
Quinette recognizes the integral role that teachers play in the community and dedicates her time to mentoring fellow teachers and building community relationships. She leads by example, continuing to further her education in the pursuit of continuous growth and commitment to her students.
Congratulations, Quinette!
