Who Is Mrs. Wood?
Hello and welcome to the page about who I am.
My name is Kari Wood. I was born, raised, and live in Georgia. As you can see by my picture I am many things besides a teacher. One of the most recent titles that I have added to describing who I am is being a breast cancer SURVIVOR.
Family:
I am married to a wonderful Paramedic, Nathan, and the
step-mother to a beautiful daughter, Breanna. I have 2 older sisters and an older brother. I am also the proud aunt to 3 nieces and 3 nephews.
Schooling:
I attended Birney Elementary, Floyd Middle School, and Osborne High School. I have a Marketing Management Associate degree from Chattahoochee Technical College, a Bachelors in Early Childhood Education from Kennesaw State University, and a Masters in Early Childhood Education from Piedmont University.
Teaching:
I have taught first, second, and fourth graders. I have taught at Still Elementary and now here at Dowell Elementary.
Hobbies/Interests:
Some things that I enjoy when I am not teaching are being involved in my church, spending time with family and friends, traveling, running 5ks,
cooking, scrapbooking, and getting massages!
I love traveling, seeing new places, and sharing the experiences with my students. My favorite place to get away to is the beach! Some of the places that I have traveled to (and LOVED!) are San Diego, Maine, Niagara Falls, Jamaica, and Belarus. I love to go on cruises and have had the opportunity to travel to many islands in the Caribbean.
I hope that you have enjoyed getting to know a little more about who I am. I look forward to us getting to know each other better as we work together to help your child have a successful year!
