About Mikayla Rainho

Mikayla is originally from Indianapolis but moved to Muncie after she graduated from Ball State University in 2017. She graduated Magna Cum Laude with a B.S. in elementary education.

In the 2018-2019 school year, she became Royerton Elementary’s first technology teacher. Additionally, she co-wrote curriculum based on the four computational thinking principles for elementary teachers to use with their own students.
