Kindergarten Teacher

My name is Karen Luellen, and I have happily been a kindergarten teacher at Beverly Elementary since 2004.  I graduated with honors from Emporia State University in Kansas (Class of ’95) with a Bachelor’s of Science in Education and dual specializations in Early Childhood and Multiculturalism in the Classroom.  I have two college-age children.  Kathryn is in Law School out of Kansas University and John is attending Stephen F. Austin.  When I’m not teaching, I am writing my next book, reading my Kindle, playing with fluffy cat Boo, browsing antique shops, or playing word games.  I feel truly honored to teach kindergarten and cannot imagine a more supportive and caring environment for children to learn and grow than Beverly Elementary.  My personal goal is to offer a happy and safe place for children to feel accepted, appreciated, and encouraged to show perseverance as we work together to meet their individual needs.  I am looking forward to a fantastic school year!
