About Mrs. Kenney
I am from the great state of Iowa.  I graduated from the University of Iowa with a Bachelor of Science degree in Nursing.  After graduation, I worked at the University of Iowa Hospital as a pediatric nurse.  My family and I have lived in the Phoenix area for the past two decades.  I have a teaching certificate from Arizona State University and have been teaching at Waggoner since 1993.  I have taught kindergarten and I am now enjoying teaching 2nd grade.

 


Our Class

       Mrs. Kenney's 2nd graders are awesome!  We have 23 boys and girls.  We do our BEST to practice becoming a person of character.  We love to read, write, do math, explore science and learn about our world.  We love our school and are proud to be a Waggoner 2nd grader!
