Ms. Kelsey is a San Diego native who grew up in Oceanside, CA. She is very excited to continue working at HTe this year! This is her third year teaching at HTe and loving being in 4th grade. She loves the joy and learning that happens with students. Before finding her home at HTe, she worked abroad as an ESL teacher, was a social-emotional mentor in a middle school, and taught grades 1, 2, 5 and 6 in a different school! She loves to encourage curiosity daily in her students and help them find their passions.

When not teaching, she enjoys spending time with her husband and french bulldog, trying new restaurants, going to the zoo and recharging with a good book.
