About The Teacher
Hi, my name is Karen Williams. I am very excited about working with your children this year. This will be my first year teaching 5th grade and I am really looking forward to it. The curriculum is fun and exciting and there is awesome literature available for 5th graders! I started my teaching career at Williams Science and Fine Arts Magnet School in Topeka. I graduated from Washburn University in 2002, after student teaching at Williams. I taught at Williams for four years, 3rd grade my first year, and then kindergarten. I decided to apply in the Seaman district when full day kindergarten was approved. It has been nice to be closer to home and this community is wonderful to live and work in. I taught kindergarten at Indian Creek for 3 years, until the school closed. I received my degree in Educational Leadership from Washburn University in 2009. My husband, Eric, is a bricklayer. We have been married for almost ten years. We are blessed with two beautiful children. Our son, Andrew, will be 6 in August, and is starting kindergarten this year. Ryleigh turned 4 in June. We love to play outside and read. We are active in Northland Christian Church.
