Kelly Ward

My name is Kelly Ward.  I am so grateful to be a part of Hartselle City Schools.  I have been a teacher for 26 years.  I received my Occupational Therapy Assistant degree in 1996 and graduated from Wallace State in Cullman, Alabama.  I went back to school in 1999 to become a Special Education Teacher.  I graduated from Athens State University with a Bachelor of Science in Special Education K-6 (Collaborative teacher).  I received my Master of Arts in Teaching in 2018 through Dallas Baptist University with a Multisensory specialization through Shelton School.  I have a son named Hunter.  I love being a teacher and witnessing a student overcome challenges and reach their full potential.  I believe that building relationships with students, parents, teachers, and administrators is the key to successful learning.  I love working at Barkley Bridge Elementary school and look forward to many years in this position.
