Meet the Teacher

Hi everyone! My name is Mrs. McKinney. This will be my 7th year in education! I graduated from Southern Illinois University earning my Bachelor of Science degree in elementary education. I previously taught kindergarten and first grade at Shawnee. This will be my 5th year in second grade!

I currently live in Carterville with my husband, Ryan, and our daughter, Sutton. We are expecting a baby boy in September & we can't wait for him to be here! We also have one cat named Chloe. I am a huge St. Louis Cardinals fan, and I enjoy visiting Busch Stadium to watch the games. When I am not teaching, I love to read and catch up on my favorite TV shows. I really enjoy vacationing at the beach and making memories with my family!

A few of my favorites:

Candy: Twix

Animal: cat

Book: The Book with No Pictures

Movie: The Greatest Showman

Drinks: coffee & Dr. Pepper
