Hello! My name is Ms. Kat and welcome to our Kindergarten class. This is my 19th year as a teacher and my fifth at Skyway. This year we will have many wonderful adventures learning and growing together. I earned a BA in Elementary Education from the University of MN (2005) and a MS in Education from Walden University (2015). I enjoy a good dad joke, reading light-hearted mysteries, and hanging out with my loved ones.
