Hello my name is Christy Kelly and I teach kindergarten at Cordley Elementary. I've lived in Lawrence for the past 27 years and began teaching for the district 17 years ago. Education is my second profession. My first degree is in business. Soon after I graduated from KU I decided I wanted to work with children and I went back to school to earn my education degree. It was one of the best decisions of my life. I love being a teacher and getting to know and teach all of your children. I have been married for 18 years and we have a son, Trey, who is 12 years old and is in seventh grade at Liberty Memorial Central Middle School. I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, reading, walking, and biking.
I truly enjoy my job and being surrounded by 5 and 6 year olds. I assure you there is never a dull moment in kindergarten. Thank you for sharing your children with me. If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to contact me at christyk@usd497.org
P.S. This website is a work in progress and I will attempt as the year goes on to add to it. :-) Enjoy your day!
