Mrs. Angela Killeen (aka "Ms. Ange")
I love being a teacher. I was born in Kinkora, Prince Edward Island. I have been teaching for over 22 years.
I enjoy reading, doing yoga, swimming and spending time with my family. I live in Pleasant Grove with my husband Matt, my daughter, Bridget. I love my two cats and my dog.
