Red Rock Elementary school teacher Rohan Dharan is named Fulbright Scholar.

For Rohan Dharan teaching English in India seemed like a natural fit. That’s where his parents are from, after all, and it’s his job here in Las Vegas.  A member of the Teach for America program, Dharan is a fourth grade teacher at Red Rock Elementary.

The 23-year-old is working on his master of education in curriculum and instruction. He is off to New Dehli, India, to teach English. In the long term, he hopes to parlay his education and experience into school administration and curriculum development.
