My name is Kari Frey and I am so excited to be your child’s Second Grade teacher this year! I have been teaching for 29 years in the Tippecanoe School Corporation. I worked at Hershey and Woodland for my first 26 years and now I am looking forward to my fourth year at Mintonye. I have experience teaching 1st and 3rd grade as well as kindergarten.
I graduated from Purdue University and hold a Master's Degree in Curriculum and Instruction. I also have experience teaching gifted and talented students as well as English as a second language learners. I was even granted a year’s leave of absence during the 1999-2000 school year to teach 2nd grade overseas in Barcelona, Spain!

We have three children, Audrey who will be a Senior at Purdue, Lilly a Senior at Central Catholic, and our son Parker is a 6th grader at Wainwright Middle School.
