Kelly Kennard

Hello everyone!

I’m Miss Kennard, and I’m absolutely thrilled to be your teacher this year! I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Liberal Studies from UCR and earned my teaching credential at APU. Over the past three years with the Etiwanda School District, I’ve had the pleasure of teaching in 2nd, 4th, and 5th grade classrooms.

When I’m not in the classroom, you can find me playing soccer, hitting the slopes on my snowboard, or getting lost in a great book. I’m also fortunate to share my life with two adorable fur babies, Dakota and Gigi!

I’m excited to embark on this year of learning, exploration, and fun with you. My goal is to create a classroom where everyone feels welcomed and valued. Here’s to a fantastic year ahead—I can’t wait to get started!
