Hello! My name is Kelly Williams, and I am a 3rd-grade teacher here at Eyestone Elementary South. I just started my 30th year of teaching and can honestly say it has flown by! I began my teaching career in the field of Special Education. I absolutely LOVED working with special needs students, but after 12 years, I decided to make a change to Elementary Education. I taught 4th grade for ten years, and this is my fifth year in 3rd grade. My team is incredible, and the students are SO SWEET. I am looking forward to making connections with each student.
I knew at a very young age that I wanted to be a teacher. I remember "playing school", babysitting, and teaching Sunday School, anything to work with children. It has always been my passion, and I feel blessed to do what I love.
I am happily married to the love of my life, and we have two amazing daughters. They both attended Eyestone K-5, Wellington Middle School, and Poudre High School. Lily recently graduated from the University of St. Thomas in St. Paul, MN, with a degree in Neuroscience. Ruby is starting her Sophomore year at the University of San Francisco, studying Biology and Chemistry.
I love living in the beautiful State of Colorado, especially appreciating the over 300 days of sun each year! There is always something to do, and I must admit, time in the mountains is good for the soul. I love to travel, read (World War II historical fiction is my favorite), spend as much time with my family as possible, and spend time outdoors.
I love my Eyestone family and am so happy to be a part of the new Eyestone Elementary South School and the Wellington community.
