Navigating the first year of teaching in a new district is daunting. Starting in the middle of a pandemic is even harder! Mrs. Aimee Ball joined Kingsley Schools as a second grade teacher in 2020.
"What a crazy year to begin a new career!" she said. "I am excited for the upcoming school year and can't wait to meet my new students, and see how much my first year students have grown."
Mrs. Ball is looking forward to getting to know the Kingsley community.
In Her Own Words
"Hi, my name is Aimee Ball. I live in Traverse City with my husband and four young children. My husband’s career in the United States Coast Guard has allowed us to live all over the United States. We have lived in North Carolina, Alaska, California, and Alabama, but have decided to call Traverse City home. My four children (6, 8,10,12) keep me very busy and entertained. As a family we love going to the beach and exploring our new areas!"
