Mrs. Karen Kennedy
This is my fifteenth year of teaching at Morrice Elementary. My favorite in school is math; you could even call me "Math Geek." I also love teaching language arts and social studies. I believe very strongly that all students can excel if they try to do their best.
Outside of school, I am an avid reader. I also love to garden and cook.
My family consists of myself, my husband, and our two dogs: Grissom and Bo. I have lived in Shiawassee County for over 25 years, but I grew up on the west side of the state. During the summer, I spend most of my time at Gun Lake where I have a cottage. When we’re there we spend time hiking in the woods and swimming in the lake. In the winter, we snowshoe in the woods.

Genius Hour
Every week students will spend time learning and researching a topic of their own choice. At the end of each marking period, each student will do a presentation to show the rest of the class what they learned about.
