A little about Mrs. K

Welcome to my class and website! I am so glad that you are taking the time to get to know me! I was born and raised in St. Louis, MO, where I attended the Mehlville school district K-12th grade. It was at MHS that my love of the social studies bloomed with the help of some of the most amazing teachers I have ever known. I was fortunate enough to receive a full ride to Southeast MO State, where I earned my Bachelor's Degree in Social Studies Education. I was blessed to be hired at Windsor before even graduating from college. I have been teaching here for nearly two decades and am proud to call Windsor "home!"

I married my best friend, Tom Klingeman in 2006. We have been blessed with 2 wonderful children, Kenzie and Desmond. Between Tom, the kids, and the endless parade of rescue dogs, I never have a dull moment!

As for hobbies, I gave up coaching the Varsity Cheerleaders when my little cheerleader, Makenzie, was born, but I still love to watch the girls cheer and watch my Owls play their sports. I have had horses since I was a child and I love to ride. I also love jogging, swimming, reading, playing with my kids, crocheting and baseball ~ GO CARDS!!!! My MOST FAVORITE THING IN THE WORLD is taking my students all over the world! I LOVE to travel and I've now taken students on trips to 3 continents and 7 countries.

While I simply love to teach, my favorite class is AP Psychology. I think you are the best when you are passionate about what you are doing, and psychology is certainly my passion. However, AP Human Geography gives my the opportunity to teach materials otherwise not addressed in schools and Personal Finance allows me the joy of preparing students for life after high school... OK, I suppose I love everything I teach (and YOU should too!)

I can't wait to get to know each of you!!!
