About Mrs. Powell

I have been a teacher at Corpus Christi since 2023 and at St. John for 29 years. I have also taught 5th/6th grade at Sacred Heart when it was in Bonner Springs and have  substituted in and around Lawrence. I received a BS in Journalism from Kansas University and a Graduate Certification in Education. I grew up in Hutchinson, Kansas, but my husband and I have called Lawrence our home since meeting at KU.  We raised our children here and love the art, culture, and educational opportunities of this community. During my free time, I enjoy reading, traveling, exploring our natural world, and experiencing cultural events/arts of all kinds especially dance.
