Miss Keegan  

Hi everyone! 

My name is Ashley Keegan and I'm so excited to be a part of the Forest Hills Global Elementary community. I am originally from a small town in Connecticut, came down to North Carolina in 2009 to go to East Carolina University and never went back! This will be my 10th year teaching and 3rd year here at Forest Hills. I am humbled and lucky enough to serve as Forest Hills' 2023-2024 Teacher of the Year. I have taught 4th grade for 9 years and this is my first year teaching 5th grade Reading. I am beyond excited to start this new journey with an awesome team and share my love for reading to help our students grow throughout this school year! I am a strong believer that through communication and positive relationships we can achieve anything. I know this year is going to be an awesome one! When I'm not teaching I enjoy cooking, exploring new places around Wilmington, live music, reading, going to the beach and spending time with friends and family.

Drinks: Iced Coffee, Hint Water 

Treats: Sour Patch Kids, Sun Chips, Honey Mustard Pretzels 

Restaurants: Nikkis, k38, Jersey Mikes
