My name is Kathleen Hicks and I teach 2nd grade at Skyway.  This is my 21st year in the Coeur d'Alene School District. I feel so fortunate that I have been a part of the Skyway family for 15 of those years. I have taught kindergarten and 2nd grade, but most of my years I have taught reading. I hope to instill a love of reading in all of my students.  

I am originally from Scottsdale, Arizona and graduated from Arizona State University.  We moved to Coeur d’Alene 19 years ago and fell in love with its beauty. My husband and I are the proud parents of 2 sons, both University of Idaho graduates.  We have always been a hockey family; both boys played and my husband still referees. We also love to hike as often as possible. Our dog, Tessy loves to join us on our hikes.
