Hello! My name is Nancy Kast and I cannot wait for another great year in Kindergarten at Wealthy Elementary! I am originally from Troy, Michigan and have an older brother named Brett who lives in Indianapolis. After graduating from Troy Athens High School, I attended Hope College where I graduated with a degree in Elementary and Special Education with an emphasis in Learning Disabilities. This will be my second year teaching Kindergarten at Wealthy! I love teaching and am fortunate to be able to do what I love in this amazing community and district.
In my spare time I enjoy running, traveling up north (Traverse City area), spending time with family, reading, and grabbing coffee with friends! Teaching and working with kids is my passion. I love being able to guide them in becoming the best version of themselves and watching them grow as learners and as people!
I am looking forward to this year in Kindergarten and cannot wait to see your child grow throughout the year!
" Every child deserves a champion – an adult who will never give up on them, who understands the power of connection and insists that they become the best that they can possibly be." -Rita Pierson
My family and I at an annual fundraiser for our family's foundation.
My family loves country music! This summer we saw Thomas Rhett together.
Running is a hobby of mine and I've ran a few half marathons- all in the Traverse City area!
I love coffee and enjoy a cup each day :).
I have a dog named Ava and she is a puggle :).
