We’re excited to welcome Ms. Kate Maddox to our team this year as our new second grade teacher!
Ms. Maddox joins us most recently from Grand Island, where she lived for the past two years. Before that, she spent five years in Colorado and also lived in Wichita. She brings with her seven years of teaching experience from both Colorado and Grand Island.
Originally from a family of educators, Ms. Maddox has three brothers and fond memories of visiting her grandparents’ land in Long Pine while growing up. She’s thrilled to now be living in the area full time!
Outside the classroom, she enjoys hiking, spending time outdoors, traveling, visiting theme and amusement parks, going to concerts, and relaxing with her two dogs—Lucky Doo, a puppy, and Gus, a three-year-old pup. She also loves puzzles, reading, movies, and quality time with her family.
We’re so happy to have Ms. Maddox join our school community!
