About Us

My name is Kate McDonough and I am thrilled to be starting another year at Anderson as your child's kindergarten teacher.   I have taught kindergarten for 18 years and I absolutely love it!  I cannot wait to see all that your child will learn this year!  I graduated from College of Charleston with a degree in Early Childhood education.  I taught in Charleston for several years where I obtained my Master's Degree in Education with a specialization in reading.  In 2016, I received my National Board Certification in Early Childhood Generalist.  

 I am so excited to be with Ms. McDonough’s class this year! This is my 3rd year at Anderson and with Ms. McDonough.  I love being here! I have a BA in Biology and am currently getting my Master’s degree in Forensic Science.  Prior to starting at Anderson  I stayed home with my 3 kids for 13 years. I’m originally from NJ and moved to Wilmington 3 years ago with my husband and 3 kids.  I have two sons, Aidan (15), Declan (12), and a daughter Reagan (8).  I am also a mom to 2 Goldendoodles, Koda and Ruby.  When I am not with my family or at a soccer game you can be sure I’m doing homework or reading.  I am really looking forward to a great year with your kids!
