My name is Whitney Kelly and I am a Texas A&M graduate living in small town Arkansas with my Razorback husband, our wild, adventurous, sweet little boy Tucker, and our two labs, Kate and Rosie.
Why do I teach? Because ever since 1st Grade that's what I've wanted to do. Back in 1990-1991 the PTA at my elementary school had a Cultural Arts contest. We had to draw what we wanted to be when we grew up. My wish was to be a First Grade teacher.
I won first place! And thirty years later here I am...teaching First Grade.
That drawing I did is hanging up in my classroom behind my desk to remind me everyday that I'm living out my little first grader dream.
I achieved National Board Certification and became a National Board Certified teacher in 2011. I'm beginning my 8th year of teaching and have taught resource, Kindergarten, and First Grade. First Grade is my love!
