Kris Botes
I believe every student deserves hope, encouragement, and a clear path toward their goals. I am passionate about building meaningful relationships with students and families, helping them overcome challenges, recognize their strengths, and move confidently toward graduation and a successful future.
Personal Bio
I am passionate about helping students discover hope, direction, and confidence in their educational journey. I believe that every student has the ability to grow and succeed when they have the right support, encouragement, and relationships around them.
My work with students and families allows me to help navigate challenges, celebrate progress, and create individualized paths toward success. Having seen firsthand the positive impact Achievement House can have on students and families, I feel especially grateful for the opportunity to help other learners experience that same sense of hope and accomplishment.
Outside of work, I enjoy CrossFit, horseback riding, and traveling.
