Hello! My name is Mrs. McKinney, and I am excited to be starting my 13th year of teaching. I graduated from Western Carolina University with a Bachelor’s degree in Middle Grades Education, specializing in English and Science.
I live in Mars Hill with my husband, our two energetic boys, and our sweet little dog, Maggie. When I’m not in the classroom, you’ll often find me reading a good book, exercising, or running—all things that keep me energized and inspired.
Teaching is truly my passion, and I love helping students grow both academically and personally. I look forward to a wonderful year of learning and growth together!
