All About Magical Me
Howdy! My Name is Mrs. Kali Wood, and I am happy to be the AVLS teacher here at Crownover Middle School! My life is full of blessings, which include my best friend and husband of 25 years (Ty) , and our two children (Jake & Grace), who also attended Crownover, and Guyer High School. We share our house with 3 dogs, and one cat who provide us endless hours of entertainment. Our family enjoys spending time together watching movies (Harry Potter and any good mysteries), cooking, and traveling to our family ranch in San Saba, TX. This will be my 13th year in education, and my 12th in Special Education. Previously I taught Life Skills at WS Ryan Elementary, and inclusion at Evers Park Elementary. I LOVE teaching middle school, and we have so many wonderful activities and adventures in our AVLS classroom. I am so excited to be a part of your child's educational experience.
I am a Denton girl born and bred, and am proud to raise my family in my hometown. I am truly honored to be teaching in the same school district where I learned my passion for learning, discovering and experiencing new things. As a student of Denton ISD, I attended Frank Borman Elementary, Sam Houston Elementary, Calhoun Middle School, and graduated as a Denton High School Bronco in 1989. In my opinion, there is not a better place to live than right here in Denton, TX!
