My name is Mrs. Jamey Katen and this is my seventh year teaching. I
taught fourth grade in Calumet City, Illinois for two years, second grade in
Columbus, Ohio for two years, and this is my third year teaching
at Oak Grove. I graduated from Ball State University in
Muncie, Indiana with a B.S. in Elementary Education with a concentration in
Language Arts and have a M.A.E. in Elementary Education with a focus on
Reading. I am orignally from the north and moved to Raleigh in the summer of
2007 with my husband. We love living in North Carolina and do not miss the
snow up north! I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, reading,
shopping, and cooking.
